Finally got a chance to talk to the husband today about the different options I have found so far. He likes Abundantly Green's CSA program. We are going to sign-up for the Spring season to test out how we like it. There will be 8-weeks of pick-ups about every few weeks. It starts next week and goes until May. I am excited to see what kinds of vegetables we will get. I'll post recipes I use with the new vegetables so that you can have some ideas about what you would do with yours.
As for the milk....Well the only price I have found so far is about $8/gallon. Way too steep for the hubby so I will keep looking. We go through about a gallon and a half every week. I have 4 more contacts to call, all of which I have only names, numbers, and addresses - No idea what business any of them are in. Maybe one is a dairy farm!
I am excited about the vegetables and can't wait to see what my first bag brings. On the to do list is to finish contacting everyone on my list and see what options are available. I'm surprise at how quickly this is coming together but the hard part will be getting adjusted to seasonal eating and not being able to have whatever vegetables I want when I want them. The fruits will be the hardest as you can't really get fresh fruit off the orchard year round....I don't think. Well I have a paper to write and an exam this weekend so I better get to it. Will keep you posted with the progress of my renaissance!
