Book Description
This timely sequel to the popular inspirational blueprint for Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is set to guide this rapidly growing movement to the next stage of its development. The authors provide very practical examples and information that will be of service to growers and shareholders alike without losing sight of the heart and excitement that makes CSA central to the renewal of agriculture. Added to the material from the original edition are two new essays by Trauger Groh dealing with the economic, legal and spiritual questions surrounding the CSA movement, and the role of domestic animals on CSA farms, while Steven McFadden contributes several new pieces on the context and scope of community farms. New profiles of five farms are included, and the farm "biographies" from the 1990 first edition are reprinted and updated with reports on their present situations and lessons learned during the intervening years. Expanded appendices provide suggestions for starting CSA farms, look at the issues surrounding the acquisition and holding of land, illustrate sample farm prospects and budgets, and offer lengthy lists of resources and suggestions for additional reading.

Book Description
Community supported agriculture (CSA) is a new idea in farming which has been gaining momentum since its introduction to the U.S. from Europe in the mid-1980s. Consumers interested in safe food & farmers seeking stable markets for their crops join together in economic partnership. CSA consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation so that the farmland becomes the community¿s farm, with the growers & consumers providing mutual support & sharing the risks & benefits of food production. All CSAs have a shared commitment to building a more local & equitable agricultural system. This bibliography & resource guide contains a selection of writings that document the CSA movement in the U.S.
