Announcement: Deadline Approaching to Join Bed-Stuy Farm Share

The deadline to sign up to join the Bed-Stuy Farm Share is June 1, 2011.

The Bed-Stuy Farm Share is a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) project that brings fresh, locally grown vegetables to the community at an affordable price. The farm share pays its farmers at the beginning of each season and they deliver each share of freshly picked produce weekly or bi-weekly at two pickup locations.

Produce is pesticide-free and picked just the day before distribution. Besides getting delicious veggies, you get to meet your farmer and try out some new produce and connect with your community.

Bed-Stuy Farm Share partners with local farmers of color who are committed to using organic growing practices. The Farm Share vegetable growers are immigrant farmers from St. Vincent and Dominican Republic. They farm in Vermont and New Paltz, NY.

Change the way you think about food, and do your body, your family and your children a favor: Nourish yourself with fresh, organic and healthy food products! But you must hurry, before the deadline passes and it is too late.
