C has been interested in getting a share of a CSA for awhile, but I have always been a little hesitant because of the financial aspect. A friend recently mentioned that her family is entering their third year as members of Tipi Produce, out of Evansville, Wisconsin, so I thought it was worth a closer look. Upon exploring their website, I found out that the rates seem pretty reasonable and that we are even eligible for a $200 rebate from our health insurance company. This makes the final cost to us about $18 a week for a box of local, organic produce. This price, combined with our desire to eat healthier food, helped us reach our decision quickly. We will be picking up our first box tomorrow!!
We will be using future posts on this blog to share what we get from Tipi Produce and what we are doing with it. We would also like this to be a place for others to share their CSA experiences, recipes and suggestions.
With that, are you or have you been a member of a CSA? If so, which one? What did you like/dislike about it?
