These are photos that were taken of our CSA. What is a CSA? This is a food co-op that we participated in over the summer. For 12 weeks we received a half a bushel of food a week. I liked getting the food every week, but honestly I'm not sure if I will do it again. It was nice to get food already packaged for you once a week and you only had to make one stop. I found though that there happened to be a lot of waste in my house. As part of the program you don't get to pick your own groceries. Everyone gets equal shares of the same foods. So I found that some weeks I had an abundance of certain foods and sometimes they weren't the foods I felt like eating. There were also times that I didn't like what they had sent or didn't know how to prepare it. I think that it's a commitment. If you are going to participate make sure that you are committed to making it work for you. Be creative and learn how to cook the food that you have and be committed to actually eating or storing the food that you have so you won't throw away a lot of the box.
