The CSA Has Begun! (With Links to MHOF and Dismas House)
I must admit. The beginning of this year's Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share has added a bit of spring to my step over the past day or so. It has been a busy time. School is ending. Summer services are beginning. There is other stuff to. I look at my metaphorical plate these days and find it close to full. I bet some of you are feeling the same way.
Last year the CSA buyer's group at the church was quite a bit larger. Some folks split off to form another group. Others just decided it wouldn't work for them. That's OK. I have to say, though, that it works for me! It is amazing what a bag of local organic veggies can do for one's spirit. It elevates our minds and joins us to the ground. Last night we had a salad that didn't even know it was picked yet. May there be more salads like that to come...
Here is a link to the Many Hands Organic Farm where our share comes from. They do good work, both with their veggies and with Dismas House. Here also is a link to the Many Hands Sustainability Center. When choosing a farm, we felt that this was the one where our money went farthest. We are very, very happy with our choice!
Ya know...I believe there are a few slots left for the Framingham pick-up site. You might want to check it out. After all, every Burbanian should eat more vegetables...
