Farm in Progress Vegetable U-Pick
CSA Memberships are Full for 2015
What is a CSA?
A Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a partnership between a local farmer and a community of supporters. CSA members make a commitment by purchasing "shares" of the coming crop and supporting the farm through the season by sharing some of the costs, risks, and bounty of the harvest.
This approach makes numerous rewards for the farmer and consumer.
-
For the farmer, we get to sell shares early in the winter months before work starts in the field, payment is collected early to pay for farming costs such as seeds, fertilizer, equipment, etc.
-
The consumers get first pick of super fresh, chemical free, local, vitamin enriched foods, an opportunity to try new veggies, and teach their children how food grows and where their food comes from with out doing all the work!
We are located in Progress, MS.
Our CSA provides fresh local, chemical free, Non GMO vegetables.
Once a week for 8 weeks, boxes are picked up at the farm, which is located in Progress, MS.
