I found this awhile ago and thought it was pretty cool. It gives you the location of farms, farmer's markets, and community supported agriculture (CSA) throughout the US among other things. It provides a way to find healthy and environmentally friendly food.
One thing that I've been interested to try out is the CSA. If we participate in it, we pay X amount of money, and the farm/s will package a box of fresh organic groceries every week depending on what's available at the time. The box will either be delivered or can be picked up at a certain time weekly or bimonthly.
I have calculated it and figured that it can be fairly comparable to buying a week's worth of fruits and vegetables on my own. For example, according to this CSA at Garden of Eden, it costs $34.75/wk for a box for 2-3 people, $41/wk for a box for 4-5 people. So, if anyone's interested, we could try it out with the bigger box for around $20/wk/2 person, which is what I'm spending on groceries anyway.
Anyone interested?
Did I mention my new goal? I am going to buy whatever is on sale and try it in a new recipe.
