Re: csa names

Allan,

I disagree about that post article (of course I don't have it in front of me to quote) but I think the author defined CSA for his readers and he defined it as getting fresh vegetables straight from the farmer without going to a farmers' market.

I agree, those people that called me from the article didn't mean what you mean by CSA. And without the article to 'define' the term for them they wouldn't have had a clue wether CSA meant Confederate Soldiers of America or Confectionairy Students Association.

I use the term subscription vegetables because, while I think it is a bad term, I always assumed it was more intuitive. My wife, however says that I'm wrong. She says that only slightly more people understand subscription vegetables than understand CSA. She says we still need to find a better term or spend several hundred million on an ad campaign educating people about our definitions.
