Connecticut (CT) CSA

Connecticut (CT) CSA More Popular Than Ever.  Eating Local Never Tasted So Good!

We still have shares available for Mad Hatter Farm's CSA (consumer supported agriculture) program.  Buying into a CSA is a powerful way to change the way you bring food to your family's table.  Vegetables purchased directly from the farm are fresher, have a better nutrient content and really taste better.   Joining a CSA helps to support your local economy - when you buy local, 80% of the money stays in your community.  When you buy from a "big box" store (in our town its Super Stop and Shop) only 20% of the money you spend stays in your community. 

And in tough financial times, joining a CSA makes sense - the weekly cost of a CSA is comparable to the weekly cost of buying produce at the supermarket.  And if you are eating at home more than you did before, a CSA is the way to go -  you get better tasting and better quality produce than you would at the super market. 

Its always hard to change the way we do things, but joining a CSA is a win-win - good for your community and good for your taste buds!
