CSA Ideas Lab: CSA in NYC - A Model for Greater Connection
Farmers and community members in NYC have spent decades honing and evolving a model that allows farmers to more easily distribute shares and community members to create greater connection and accessibility.
Hear from Farm Generations Cooperative / GrownBy and East Williamsburg CSA to discuss insights from a survey of farmers and community members. We'll discuss how this model could (and should!) be adapted to support farmers and increase engagement in other geographical areas.
