Let me introduce myself. I'm Laura Benson, proprietress of BlueStar Acres Farm and 3rd party CSA service. I'm a responsible adult (49) & mother of 5. I ( and my Granny before me) have been doing the "Large extended family" equivalent (over 50 members average- Benson- Kennedy- Hammond- Jamison- Vaughn- Leblanc- LeBouef- Boren- Duncan- Cortez- Poole- We're ALL related! LOL) to a CSA for quite some time now, but I have never had a farm stand or sold at local farmers' markets. My Dad raises our beef at the 4B, another side of the family does eggs & poultry, another a fruit orchard, another pecans,another runs the horse stable, etc.. The original location of the family gardens were at my Granny's place ( Located , what is now the area east of Friendswood - BOY, has that area changed a lot over the years!) . I join (more...)
