My name is Niti and I am the mother of 3 amazing souls. I started this modified CSA program because I wanted to find a way to receive locally raised ethical meat, seafood, produce, dairy products, grains and sustainably produced local nutrient dense foods all year round. This was not possible unless I went out to all the farms myself every week to collect them.
During my travels from farm to farm I learned that many of the farms that were feeding my family might soon be driven out of business due to lack of sales. Driving around to the farms is quite a chore and there were not enough folks willing to do that. I also learned that many meat farmers couldn't rely on the farmers markets because once there is a beef provider in a market, for example, they rarely allow a second or third farm to sell their beef product there.
