George Nemeth · Not all Community Supported Agriculture is created equally
February 5th, 2009
Good questions from CSA Farm Girl:
To me a CSA is a unique and special relationship between farms and their members. I would ask any person who is considering joining a CSA to ask themselves and their CSA some basic questions.
-Is there a farmer directly involved? Do I know him or her, get to meet them, have an opportunity to visit the farm (even if weekly pickup is elsewhere?)
-Is one of my reasons for joining a CSA to directly support the farm and support small scale local agriculture in my region?
If so, would a farmer’s market be better for my needs.
- Is natural or organic important to you? How committed is your grower to those principles?
I would ask my CSA
· Who grows the food…?
Where does the food you’re eating come from?
via CSA days: Are all CSAs the same?.

some of us were contacted about the possibility of starting a food coop on the west side. I jumped at the chance but admit it’s been a while since I had the initial email from them. I’d sort of like to know the answer to these questions as it involves the coop too, because that kind of total local partnership is really an awesome idea. I love the questions you itemized here, very instructive.
