A few weeks ago I signed up for a CSA (community supported agriculture) with Riverview Farms, who delivers boxes of vegetables once a week to a church just a few miles away. It's something I've been meaning to do for awhile, but I didn't pick the best time to do it. Naturally, the CSA is delivering the same kinds of vegetables that I'm already growing. No idea what to do with all the lettuce I've got. Although they did throw in a bunch of stuff that I don't have, like beets and cabbage, plus a mystery vegetable which turned out to be kohlrabi.
Not sure I'll sign up for another round (this one ends next week). For one thing, I'm sure they're going to be delivering a ton of zucchini and I've got 6 big prolific plants in my garden. For another, it's just too many vegetables for 2 people. For a family it would be great, but even though we eat a lot of vegetables, we can't get through them all in a week. I might sign up for the fall season since I probably won't have anything growing by then.
