Harvest Howard County Magazine

By joining a CSA you are directly
supporting a local farm or in some
cases several farms. Howard County is
fortunate to have several CSA programs.
No matter how small or expansive your
needs chances are there is a CSA for you.
Costs will vary as well as length of shares and
pick-up options. Joining a CSA is also a great
way to introduce new fruits and vegetables into
your daily diet while learning about how your
food is being grown. So try a CSA today!
Still not sure? Splitting a CSA with a friend or
neighbor is a great way to try a CSA.
