I joined Fresh and Local CSA this year for the first time and I will be joining again for next season. I found that the vegetables tasted delicious and I think that the delivery was always prompt. I realize that some problems arose from time to time but I was happy to be kept informed and I didn't feel that any problems experienced on the farm affected the quality or the quantity of the vegetables that I received. I am kind of surprised to find that someone would complain about being kept informed about farm happenings because I felt that the farm was "my" farm and I always wanted to know what was going on each week. I took the story about the truck being stuck in the mud as an anecdote and since it didn't interfere with the vegetables being delivered the next day, I actually forgot all about it until I read about it again here. I did not have any opportunities to visit the farm in the summer but I did go out for the garlic planting party in the fall. I had a great time-- there were a lot of CSA members there to help and I really felt that I was a part of something special. I enjoyed meeting Farmer Allan and Maura (who made some great black bean chili for everyone). I look forward to next season .
