Local farms are uniting to bring more people into their CSAs. Soon enough, we'll see asparagus leading the spring crop, and CSAs will be in full swing.
Our panel explains how CSAs work, how they've grown, and we talk about how building community gives CSAs an opportunity to talk about a wide range of issues that impact farms. Those include why local food can be healthier for consumers as well as the environment, why teaching your kids where their food comes from is important, and what climate change is doing to local farms. Our guests:
- Ruth Blackwell, Mud Creek Farm
- Ammie Chickering, Peacework Farm
- Andy Fellenz, Fellenz Family Farm
- Kyle Stevens, Lehigh Valley Outpost
