Series Overview
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a fast growing economic model for making farming businesses financially viable and for providing affordable, quality produce to the community. This workshop series features three successful CSAs in different regions of Massachusetts and New Hampshire who can explain from experience the details of making this creative business model work.
The workshops are led by farmers experienced in running both small and large financially viable CSAs. Presenters will explain the operation of their own farms, and discuss mistakes and triumphs they have made in order to provide guidance to those considering the CSA model for their own farming future.
Workshops will be held partly outside and partly indoors. Be prepared for cold temperatures, and dress in layers.
