We signed up with Kirsop Farms to get a CSA box last year and really enjoyed it. Now that the new CSA season is looming, we're trying to decide whether to stay with Kirsop, which we loved, or branch out and try someplace new. Any recommendations?

Kirsop at einmaleins
Submitted by einmaleins on Tue, 03/18/2008 - 3:01pm.Kirsop Farm will be at einmaleins for the upcoming First Friday on April 4th presenting their CSA program and their farm.
So, if you don't know what a CSA (community supported agriculture) program is, swing on by.
If you're undecided on what farm to choose, swing on by.
If you want to meet your local farmer, swing on by.
Oh, if you love food and drink, swing on by, we'll have something special this time.

If you want a CSB...
Submitted by Logarithm on Tue, 03/18/2008 - 6:34pm.That looks delicious
Submitted by JulieM on Tue, 03/18/2008 - 7:53pm.There's so many good ones...
Submitted by Marcie on Tue, 03/18/2008 - 9:45pm.I have always loved Helsing Junction Farm - their CSA shares are diverse and really yummy. YOu can get flowers and I think even eggs in your share for a bit extra. Also, Boistfort Valley Farm is great. I would highly suggest supporting a farm like these two that were affected by the flood, they are really in need of the support of their community.
The carrots at Kirsop are unbelievable - I've never tasted anything quite like them. I call them 'carrot crack' cuz you can't do just one...
They both look good

Submitted by jlw on Fri, 03/21/2008 - 8:46am.I belonged to Rising River as well, and was very satisfied. I have had friends who had a CSA with Pigman's, and they loved it, as well.
Fresh Jalapenos!
Submitted by The Original Yoda on Fri, 03/21/2008 - 9:25am.You are so right.
They are fresh and crisp and still have a little of that green pepper, summery taste.
donate to Bread & Roses?
Submitted by chad360 on Fri, 03/21/2008 - 12:44pm.I'm following up on an info request from folks in my neighborhood:
Can folks buy a "csa/csb" and then donate that gift to a place like B&R?
I think folks in my neighborhood are looking for a way to support local service orgs & shelters until the Madison garden project takes place, which we hope will be a good place for folks to have a community garden.
Thanks for the info here, I know E & I are really looking at this as an option until we get our garden going =)
