While researching more economical ways to get organic produce, I found out about CSA: Community Supported Agriculture. You invest in a local farm at the beginning of the growing season, then receive a share of the crops produced. Pretty cool. I don't think we'll do it this year, because there is a chance we'll be in France for a few months, but it is definitely something I want to do in the future. It just makes sense to me... supporting local organic farms and getting the freshest possible, most nutricious produce. Yummy!
To find a farm near you, go to...

If you try it or have tried it, let us know how you like it!

This is such a good little tid bit to put up. I've already looked into the same kinds of things to get involved in. The push to keep the locals around, and growing healthy, non-pesticide sprayed farms can be so much bigger. I can see us participating in this in the future too, just not yet for us (financially). -Very proud of you guys though, good post. -Sorry to just comment on the topic of your column, but we already did hear from a little bird about France. So good to see that Clara is doing well still. That previous one of her & the cake is great too!
