Thursday Thirteen # 16

 

Have you ever heard of a CSA?  It stands for Community Supported Agriculture.  You pay a farmer at the beginning of the season and then they grow different foods for you called a share.  The foods will then be delivered to a farmer’s market, to your house, or a local co-op.  From what I’ve heard, the fruits and vegetables are 10x better through the CSA.  But that doesn’t shock me.  We all know how good the tomatoes are that grow in the garden or how yummy those strawberries are that grow in your own yard are. 

If you are interested in finding out more information, please visit Local Harvest.

This week I mailed off our CSA agreement with New Century CSA.  They also have an additional fruit option which we signed up for.  YUMMY!

So for my Thursday Thirteen, I am listing 13 (of their many!) foods that I am looking forward to getting.

1. Strawberries
2. Yellow squash
3. Cherry tomatoes
4. Cucumbers
5. Green beans
6. Peaches
7. Sweet corn
8. Honeydew
9. Watermelon
10. Hot peppers
11. Green beans
12. Tomatoes
13. Raspberries

There are a ton of other fruits and veggies, but those are the most popular in our house.  It will be an adventure in our house because the boys are not big veggie eaters.
