A new idea in farming, [Community Supported Agriculture], was first introduced to the United States in the mid-1980s. The [concept behind CSA][] is simple – [five-minutes][] simple. CSA involves a community of individuals who pledge their support to a farm operation so that the farmland becomes the [community's farm][]. The growers and consumers provide mutual support and share in the many risks and benefits of food production. In return, supporters receive shares in the farm’s success and the pleasure of working with the environment and food production. Legally, financially and even spiritually, you can truly grow your community.
