Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)

SHAARE TORAH CSA
Community Supported Agriculture

CSA brings the freshest local produce right to our door

What is a CSA?
A CSA is a partnership between a local farm and a community of supporters. CSA members purchase up front a "share" of the crops that are grown. In return, they partake in the farm’s bounty throughout the growing season by means of a weekly delivery of healthy, fresh, locally grown produce from the CSA farm, har­vested at the peak of ripeness, flavor, and nu­tritional content.

Our Farm: Calvert farm is located in Cecil County, Maryland. They are a small farm, certified organic by the Maryland Department of Agriculture. 2012 will be their 18th growing season.
