I enjoy cooking and the variety of fresh vegetables (some of which I had never bought before) gave me the opportunity to discover wonderful new recipes -- many of them shared by other CSA members. I never knew I liked swiss chard before last summer, and now it is one of my favorite vegetables. Once the fall season ended I really missed getting the box every week.
In addition, I participated in a number of "community" events sponsored by the CSA, including helping to prepare a Shabbat lunch (where the farmer spoke) and a cooking class, both using ingredients from the farm.
I have visited Calvert Farm twice and I am very impressed with the way Pam farms.
I would recommend this CSA to everyone!
