Are you interested in affordable, fresh picked local produce delivered to you on campus? You are in luck! Tufts is hosting a pilot Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program this Spring semester.

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. This means that you buy a share in a farm at the beginning of a season (in our case, the beginning of a semester) and you get produce delivered to you here.  When you sign up for a farm share with Enterprise Farm, you will receive an individually packed box of fresh produce, delivered directly to Tufts for pickup every Tuesday from February to April (no shares on March 20 during spring break)

Visit Enterprise's site or our blog for sizes, prices, and links to sign up/get more information.

If you're looking for more than just vegetables, there are other types of CSAs such as:

• Cape Ann Fresh Catch - a fish CSA in Massachusetts with drop off points all over, including Cambridge.
  
  
• The Houde Family Farm - A meat CSA in St. Johnsbury, VT that produces veal, beef, and pork products and ship to the Boston area.
  

• Wheat and Berry Farm - the first ever Massachusetts Grain and Bean CSA. 

Additionally, there are a variety of farms where you can pick up meats and produce on your own. For more information about CSAs in general, visit http://www.localharvest.org/csa/

Remember, buying local produce is one of the most significant ways to live sustainably. If you support local agriculture and sustainable farming, you are being green every day... at least three times a day!
