Misty Meadows Farm CSA

Misty Meadows Farm

In 2008 Brian and I participated in a community-supported agriculture (CSA) program from Misty Meadows Farm. Each week we received a share of freshly picked, sustainably grown produce (it’s organic too, just not certified) and chronicled our experiences as we learned how to cook with what nature offers. I alternated between FoodConnect.com, and here.

We’ve include recipes and ideas for how a couple of city-dwelling foodies can get back to eating like we did before we followed the seasons of Kroger.

• Learn more about Misty Meadow Farms.
• Read about our decision to eat locally and seasonally.

Update: we’ve signed on for 2009 as well.
