Co-op launches new CSA box model

CLEARLAKE – The Lake County Community Co-op celebrates its one-year anniversary for the group’s Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) boxes with a model revision.


The co-op’s new model will more reflect a traditional CSA model with one box provided weekly for members who pay for a subscription on a monthly basis.


The new single box will be $15 and provide a combination of local, regional and distributor-supplied organic vegetables and fruits.


The members pay for boxes by the month and receive boxes weekly. In a typical four-week month, members will pay $60 for the subscription.


Members can purchase multiple boxes, depending on their needs, and can also purchase a “bread share” for $5 each week and receive a loaf of freshly baked organic bread from Kelseyville’s Main Street Bakery.


Community supported agriculture is one of myriad options for small farmers to market their product in the local community.


The co-op's CSA is currently featuring organic produce from Barber's Country Farm and Leonardis Organics. Farmers’ markets and direct from the farm sales are two other opportunities.


“The co-op is committed to making the connections for locally produced and organic food to the local community,” a spokesperson added.
