Linda, CSA is "community supported agriculture." Some cities have them, some don't. You basically sign up to pay by the week/month, etc. and they put together a box or basket of produce for you from what they have seasonally. This keeps income coming in for them, and you have a guaranteed box of local fresh produce that you usually pick up on a certain day. We have one here, but I had problems with them, so quit in the summer. I've been on this group for several months. It's a great group and you should learn a lot here. I live in central Virginia, about an hour from the mountains. My yard is also covered in rocks. The clay is bad enough! Hopefully I can do better this year now that I know a little more about what works and what doesn't. Michelle in VA
