Community in a Box
A few weeks ago, Evan wrote about the awesome box of veggies he gets from a local farm each week. My wife and I subscribe to the same community supported agriculture program at Full Belly Farm. We are very lucky to have something like this where we live (Berkeley, CA).
For those of you who have yet to experience this cool idea, here are a couple videos to help give a stronger impression of what we’re talking about.
This video is cool because it shows how a person who has a garden can transition their hobby into an economically viable business and provide healthy foods to their community at the same time.
This one is in Illinois! (I enjoyed the farmer’s market in Urbana when I lived there, but didn’t know about CSA at the time.)
This just goes to show you that when people come together new things are possible.
