Crisp Country Acres CSA

I have already bought my CSA for the year through CCA. I have mixed feelings about this. It is great for me. For $869.50 70% of my veggies are purchased for the year. This works out to $16.72 a week, which I think is pretty affordable, at least for smaller farms.

This includes my milk share for the month, 2 liters of olive oil, 2 pounds of honey, and 1/3 of a pound of cheddar cheese. This is a little expensive and maybe not so affordable. Hard cheeses in general are super pricey and so ...
