Summer CSAs

EAST NEW YORK

BED STUY

This is the CSA I am part of. Pick ups are on Saturdays in Bed Stuy and will start again in late May or June. If there are just a few CUNY folks, we could piggy back on it but I'm not sure it'll be worth it for folks who are not around in the summer. It's $450 a season or $325 if you make less than $25K.

FLUSHING CSA (I didn't even know there was one!)
Flushing Bliss and Wisdom CSA
25-10 Ulmer Street.,
Flushing, NY 11354

Matt Kurek
Golden Earthworm Organic Farm [web]
Jamesport, NY
It's rather fancy and expensive compared to my other CSA experiences but they do have this option (they say entroll by Jan 2009 to lock in the price):
AUTUMN
FARM SHARE
Going away for the summer months? Enjoy 12 weeks of fall season produce, beginning the first week of September. $289.

THURSDAY PICK UP.

The Green Coalition will hold an interest meeting in January to assess whether we ought to partner with a farmer to make CUNY LAW a CSA site for 2009. We will also be investigating getting produce from the high school next door. If there are enough folks in the CUNY community interested in getting their seasonal farm-fresh local produce brought to them at school, we will work to make it happen. If there is something else you think we should be doing, come to the next Green Coalition Meeting.
