<The USDA operates a CSA database> Allan, I think this was where I found the (one) Tx CSA listed. I know the girl, and have been to her place. If she was growing anything but weeds and dogshit I couldn't see it. I can't imagine how she can claim to be growing food for people unless she's really cleaned up her act in the last year and a half. She had bought a little doeling from me and as I was going to be in the area, offered to deliver for her. She runs a chow 'rescue', and had dogs in cages, dogs on chains, dogs running loose, all of them immediately tried to eat the baby goat (in between attacking each other). She waded in kicking and screaming at them all. I lost a lot of sleep over leaving that baby in that environment. Why did I? Because I was broke, because my husband was with me, highly irritated because her place wasn't anywhere close to where she said it was, because he thought I had too many goats and some needed to go.
I was astonished to see her list as a CSA, especially so close to Houston where 'unsuspecting' folk might actually pay her money to grow their food. Since then I've found a couple of farms listed but I don't think it was thru that USDA site.
