BECKER FARMS CREATES A CSA PROGRAM

According to Wikipedia, Community-supported agriculture (CSA), a form of an alternative food network, is a socio-economic model of agriculture and food distribution. A CSA consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farming operation where the growers and consumers share the risks and benefits of food production. CSAs usually consist of a system of weekly delivery or pick-up of vegetables and fruit, in a vegetable box scheme, and sometimes includes dairy products and meat.

Becker Farms announced on their Twitter and website yesterday that they have made a CSA program. Check it out here:
