Check out two local options for buying farm shares for Mount Washington Valley area residents:
A new CSA provider, with options of veggies AND meat at the Alma Farm in Porter, ME
A very successful CSA has been in existence for years at the Community School in Tamworth
A CSA membership is a perfect supplement to my meager (for now) but cute vegetable garden.
We were members of the Community School CSA last year (one share for Freddie and I and our friends Anne and Bayard), joining as a way to eat locally and save money. We found several added benefits:
-Interesting cooking challenges (how many ways do YOU know to cook eggplant and tomatoe?);
-All you can pick herbs and flowers for the entire season;
-And for me a fun and relaxing escape to the farm on the weeks that I did the pick up of our share.
