Since moving to Ellensburg this past week, I joined a CSA. CSA stands for community supported agriculture. I paid some hundred dollars or so to a farm inorder for them to get me a weekly supply of fresh organic vegitables from now till the end of August. It averaged out to 12 dollars a week. I got my first box today. It came with some onions, green onions, butter leaf lettuce, kale, radishes, broccolini, romaine lettuce, and cilantro. Im not quite sure the price difference between getting it at a grocery store compared to getting it from the CSA but it feels good to know im supporting local agriculture. Also, dont disregard CSA's just because you dont live near farm land. Many CSA's have drop off locations in near-by towns.
