Now is the perfect time to sign up for a CSA share!

"CSA" stands for Community Supported Agriculture, which makes it possible to sign up to receive a "share" of the harvest from a local farm. When you sign up for a CSA share, you help support a farm for the whole growing season and in return, you get regular deliveries (often, weekly) of the freshest, local food.

Many CSA shares are made up of vegetables and fruits while others may be made up of meat, dairy products, grains, or a combination of those products. Some CSAs even run year-round! And did you know that SNAP recipients can receive a half-priced CSA share from farms that participate in the Maine Harvest Bucks program?! The Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA) supports these Maine farms offering this incentive across Maine. Visit to find a participating farm near you: http://www.maineharvestbucks.org/mhb-at-csa-farms/
