I signed up today for a CSA-Community Supported Agriculture. I'm super excited! It's a totally affordable way to get fresh, local produce. Often it's even organic, even if it's not certified organic (it's quite expensive to get the certification).
Each week from June thru November I'll get a share of fresh fruits and vegetables that should feed the whole family for a week!
This makes me so happy to be supporting a local farm, getting to eat great tasting food and also eat more healthfully. I'm so looking forward to fresh tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers..mmm my mouth is watering just thinking about it.
Maybe I can learn how to can things for the winter...

Cindy and I picked strawberries at Laraland (sp?) farms this past Saturday the last 10 minutes they were open. She made an awesome strawberry pie that was not shared with anyone at our respective work places, it was that good.
I really like the side of the road farm stands that sell local produce, you see it less and less, but hopefully American's environmental conscience lasts longer than a recession does.
we do a group CSA at work. we had our first pick up this pick. :)
