September GSG Tip of the Month

Eat organically from just $17 per week!

Did you know that you can have enough organic meats or vegetables and fruits to feed 2-3 people delivered close to your home from just $17 through a CSA?

Wht's a CSA?

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a share program in which you buy into a farm's produce over a certain period of time. You get weekly boxes of 6-7 different items of in-season, local produce to pick up either at a convenient location or the farm itself. You will eat healthier and more nutritously as a result, while supporting local farmers and reducing the distance travelled by your food.
