> Saturday, March 2, 12:00-3:00 pm,
> at Boynton Middle School, 1601 North Cayuga Street, Ithaca
> FREE! What is Community Supported Agriculture and how can you find a  
> share that will meet your needs? CSA is a partnership between  
> consumers and farmers that provides members with a weekly selection  
> of just-harvested food and farmers with an established market prior  
> to the growing season. There are differences between CSA programs  
> such as share size, products offered, pick-up locations, u-pick  
> options and on-farm work opportunities. Attend the CSA Fair to learn  
> about the many benefits of CSA, meet and talk with 25+ farmers, and  
> find out which CSA program might be perfect for you! In addition to  
> the traditional vegetable CSA, attendees will find fruits, baked  
> goods, cider, herbs and herbal products, and even fiber CSAs. All  
> participants will be entered in a drawing for a variety of door  
> prizes donated by the farms, and those looking to sign up can do so  
> on the spot!  There will be quiet activities to occupy children  
> while adults circulate, and table space to sit and review material  
> you gather. CSA programs fill up quickly so don’t miss out this  
> season. The CSA Fair is free and open to the public. For more  
> information, call Avi Miner at CCE-Tompkins, 607-272-2292 or email agm32 at cornell.edu
