[SEN-D] CSA in the neighborhood!

[Madronna Holden]

Hello neighbors,
Community supported agriculture is a great way to support local farms.
For those of you who are interested in looking into this further, check 
out the *10th Annual That's My Farmer gathering:*

Tuesday, April 21, 2009 at 1st United Methodist Church (13th & Olive in 
Eugene)

6:30pm Meet the farmers
7:30pm Program begins
8:30pm Homemade Ice Cream!
Join them for music and community

The gathering was packed last year with folks looking into the large 
number of local CSAs  represented there.

Thanks to Lost Creek Farm for bringing up this the important topic of 
local CSAs.

My best to you all,
Madronna

Rather than packing a pre-determined box for you, we set out the harvest each week and you select your favorite combination of fruits and vegetables to take home. 20 weeks of Oregon Tilth certified organic produce, June 2 - October 13, $425 for full share (feeds 2 veggie enthusiasts or 4 moderate veggie eaters) or $250 for a half share.
