Hi Folks!
On February 22nd, New Leaf Organics is joining with CSA farmers from across the country to celebrate CSA Day. This is an important time of year for us to get new members signed up because we are in the process of making the investments that will result in a successful harvest many months from now.
According to Small Farm Central, this is the most popular day of the year to sign up for a CSA share and now is when we need your support!
The CSA model is an important model to support our farm. Laura, who runs First Root Farm in Concord, Mass. put it eloquently: "The CSA model was what allowed me to start my own farm business at age 23. Without the sale of CSA shares, I would not have been able to buy seeds, potting soil, fertilizer, or anything else. Six years later, my business is still going strong. Access to capital in the off-season; the meaningful connections between farmers and CSA members; the sense of ownership and pride members feel about their CSA farms--all these things add up to healthy farms, businesses, and communities. The CSA model is good for everybody,"
So thank you for your support on this and throughout the year. It is so important for us and we are thankful to you!
If you are already signed up or just want to help us spread the word, please post about CSA Day on social media:
