CSA Dreamin’

With yet another 5 to 10 inches of snow predicted tonight, why not take a mental vacation and think about all the area CSAs gearing up for the spring season. For those of us who didn't score a winter share somewhere, Ken Scott's recent photos are like looking at memories from another season. Now is the time of year when CSA farmers are purchasing for the start of the growing season, ordering seeds and any necessary equipment. In other words, this is a great time to sign up, because many of your share dollars are spent now to get that delicious local produce on your table when warmer weather finally arrives. Take a look at CSAfarms.org or Taste the Local Difference to see the CSA farms in Northern Michigan. Keep in mind that many already have waiting lists, so the sooner you act, the better! With a variety of pick-up locations, including in town, at farmers' markets, and on the farms, along with different types of shares, you're sure to find one that suits.
