Irvington Community Supported Agriculture

Thanks to Christopher Nunn for the tip about Irvington's agriculture share program. This is an incredibly cool idea: Through this arrangement, you know where your food comes from and how it was grown.
Irvington Community Supported Agriculture Shares are going fast! Don't miss out.Irvington Community Supported Agriculture is a partnership between our farmers and the Irvington community. Our farmers supply the Irvington community with season-long, fresh produce, and the community - in turn - supports the farmer by pre-paying for the entire season. Our farmers gain some economic security for environmentally-friendly farming. Shareholders get a reliable, wholesome food source. Through this arrangement, you know where your food comes from and how it was grown.
The Irvington Community Supported Agriculture project has been hosted by the Myers-Nunn family on East Michigan Street since its founding in March 2006. A local committee of shareholders handles the details. Our 60+ annual crops are farmed by Levi Fisher and family in Montezuma, Indiana and are delivered each Saturday for 25 weeks beginning mid-May.
A limited number of shares are available for the 2007 season. For additional information you can visit their blog at http://irvingtonagriculture.blogspot.com or contact the volunteer coordinators by email at irvingtonagriculture@gmail.com.
