Community Supported Agriculture
According to the World Hunger Year website’s Food Security Learning Center, “Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a mutual commitment between a nearby farmer and the people who eat the food that the farmer produces. The farm feeds the CSA members; the members support the farm and share the inherent risks and potential bounty.”
CSAs come in all shapes and sizes: some provide vegetables and fruits, some include beef, pork, poultry and eggs. The number of shareholders for any particular farm may range from as few as 25 to as many as 1000 households.
The list below contains Nashville and surrounding area farms that operate using the CSA model, or other similar methods that enable a direct relationship between the farm and its customers.
