| What is a CSA? |
Community Supported Agriculture, CSA, is a concept that is increasingly popular throughout the United States. CSAs are established to provide members with fresh, high-quality, local food all through the growing season, while guaranteeing local farmers a secure market. This partnership allows growers and members to share the rewards and challenges of farming. Schreiber & Sons CSA: Schreiber & Sons Farm was approached with the idea of establishing a CSA program for the Tri-Cities region in 2006. We only had 8 members that year but both we and our members were happy with the outcome. Our first year success encouraged us to expand the program in 2007. We had forty-four members the second year. We provided members with over 100 different crop/variety combinations over a 25 week period. So we are forging ahead with an expanded program for 2008. Membership DetailsEvery Week, from the first week of May through late November, Schreiber & Sons CSA members will receive a wide variety of local, conventionally or organically grown vegetables, fruits and herbs. Nutritional information and recipes pertaining to the freshly harvested produce can be found on our web site. SOLD OUT! Due to an overwhelming response to our CSA program, we have reached our maximum CSA limit. As of April 10th, 2008 we can no longer accept new memberships, however if you are interested we can add you to our waiting list and contact you as soon as we have a share come available.
