CLEARLAKE – The Lake County Community Co-op announced Friday they are adding three new drop points for their community supported agriculture (CSA) boxes.
Businesses and individuals from the Lucerne, Cobb Mountain and Middletown areas have volunteered to add to the current drop points giving Lake County residents more options for "Co-oparticipation," according to Co-op Chair JoAnn Saccato.
The new drop points, slated to be open between 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursdays beginning March 4, are Cobb Mountain Video and Market, close to Bottle Rock Road and Highway 175; Lovie's Garden Emporium on Highway 29 in Middletown; and a private residence in Lucerne just off Highway 20.
These, as well as the existing drop points in Lakeport (Watershed Books in downtown) and Clearlake (14773 Lakeshore Drive) bring the total number to five drop points throughout Lake County.
In addition, the co-op recently launched a vibrant website co-created by members Eric and Elizabeth Cox, Web solution designers at bennudesign in Kelseyville.
The public and co-op members interested in purchasing weekly boxes can order directly from the new Web site at www.lakeco-op.org or by calling Hileri Shand at 707-995-9054.
Annual membership in the Co-op is $24 and the CSA boxes are $15 each, paid on a monthly basis. The co-op sources the all-organic CSA boxes first from local farmers, then regionally and beyond from farmers and distributors. In addition, members can purchase locally baked organic breads from Main Street Bakery in Kelseyville.
The co-op's intention is to help support a more sustainable food system through local and organic food sourcing and are currently testing a facilitated online ordering and distribution system (FOODS).
The co-op is celebrating over two years in existence, and envision cultivating an evolving community by nurturing values of social, economic and environmental responsibility.
