Great show. I was wondering if you or any of your readers knew about CSA in North Carolina (Triangle area).
I would be very interested in tring one of these services out. I would like to find out what others think are the best in the area.
Thanks,
Kevin
Thanks, Kevin, that's nice of you. To be truthful, I'm not at all an expert on CSA's, although a cursory websearch turned up these links, which may be good places to start:
http://www.carolinafarmstewards.org/
http://www.asapconnections.org/calendar/calendar_2002.htm
http://www.buyappalachian.org/
This one has actual addresses of several farms that operate CSA arrangements. I'm not familiar with the addresses, so you'd have to figure out which are closest to you:
