From the Local Harvest e-newsletter:
This month, with the economic stimulus package on the news day and night, we putting a twist on all this and presenting you with our “Top Four Reasons You’ll Save Money by Joining a CSA.”
Fresh produce = tasty produce. This means your family is more likely to want to EAT it. Nothing wastes your food budget faster than tossing food out uneaten.
No guarantees, but CSAs oftentimes deliver more food for your dollar than either the grocery store or the farmers market.
Fresh produce is GOOD for you. Call it preventative medicine and think of all the money/time/energy you save by doing all you can to stay healthy.
Having great produce around the house will prompt you to cook more and eat out less.
