Last summer, I was at the farmers market at the Memphis Botanic Garden standing behind a woman picking up her CSA (community supported agriculture) share. When the farmer was scooping up okra, the woman said, very nicely, that she would pass on the okra, that she still had plenty from the previous week’s share.
And that’s the wrinkle with CSAs. While they’re a great way to get fresh produce while supporting local farmers, what you get is what you … and that could mean weeks upon weeks of okra or corn or whatever is ripe for the picking.
Windermere Farm is offering its first CSA this spring, and their CSA — what Windermere’s Ken and Freida Lansing call a “farmers market” CSA — is of a different sort and it’s particularly user-friendly.
