Fair Shares CCSA (Combined CSA)

We recently moved from Florida to St Louis and discovered Fair Shares online before we arrived. We'd never belonged to a CSA before, and were eager to try it out as a way to immerse ourselves locally. As it turns out, belonging to Fair Shares is my favorite part of living in my new city! We have the weekly membership, and I am loving the fantastic food that we get in our share. I've had the most delicious blackberries I've ever eaten, the coolest heirloom tomatoes, and crispy local potato chips. Sara and Jamie have been very helpful getting us set up, and each time we pick up we get to chat about interesting new recipes to try. I love learning about foods I probably wouldn't buy, like figs (gobbled them down right from the box) and delicata squash (roast, unpeeled and sliced into bite size pieces - amazing!). I love visiting the local farmer's market, but don't buy anything except a coffee because we get everything already from Fair Shares: meats, cheeses, eggs, bread, veggies, fruit, herbs...and we add chips and chocolate. You can't go wrong - I recommend the full share highly!
