My area has mixed CSAs- some farms combine and you buy a set cost amount each week, but of whatever you want- produce, dairy, meat, etc. I just found out about it- can't wait to join next year. Thanks for sharing all the different choices that can be out there for us to enjoy. What a great post!

They pointed me toward my egg and honey CSAs. I haven't found a bread, fresh flower or wine CSA yet, but those products are often available at my weekly farmer's market.If you get involved in a meat CSA, be sure to check for soaps and bath products. It's a great way for meat producers to use the tallow and lard as a sideline.

I didn't know all those types of CSAs existed.With all those extra eggs you can easily freeze them, just beat them slightly and store in an air tight container. I don't have a local source for raw milk here where I live in NY, but I read you can freeze it making sure to leave room in the original container to allow for expansion.We've started a new raised bed garden this year so we are looking forward to the bounty but in the meantime hitting up the Farmers Market on the weekends-there's plenty of those around here thankfully!
