Dickey Farms CSA
(Community Supported Agriculture)
Dear Valued Customer,
Dickey Farms invites you to participate in our first CSA offering. Until now Dickey Farms has not conducted a CSA due to the amount of time needed to manage a traditional program. However, per the suggestion of our long-time Farmer’s Market customer, Barbara Fitzpatrick, we have decided to begin a CSA that is both manageable and flexible for all participants. Barbara suggested that a CSA program be developed with smaller shares that are redeemable by vouchers. I thank Barbara for her insight and support and hope we can all benefit from her idea. I believe that cooperative programs, such as CSAs, can help strengthen and promote local food networks that are both equitable and sustainable.
If you are interested or would like to participate in the first Dickey Farm CSA offering, please take these documents for review. To join, please read and fill out the “Explanation and Agreement” section and return with payment to Dickey Farms.
Sincerely,
David, Deana, Kathryn and Sarah Dickey
