Last summer and now this winter we have been involved in a program called CSA along with a few other farmers and gardeners. CSA stands for "Community Supported Agriculture," and it is just like it sounds - people from the community where we live have purchased shares of various items which we will provide for them once a week over a span of several weeks or months. This winter, we have sold shares on 20 dozen eggs. So every two weeks we deliver 20 dozen eggs to Karen, the lady who is heading up the CSA program in our area. We have also sold some beef and chicken shares. Karen and her husband provide vegetables that are grown in their huge garden.
If you are interested in learning more about CSA, or want to sign up to recieve a share(s), please visit Karen's website at: www.sunhillgardens.com, or call us at 780-877-2186
