Interest in local food has reached a point where some farmers are actually able to expand their operations. Great Basin Basket is making value-added products like soup and bread CSAs and jams available during the winter months. NanaDew Herb Farm, which previously contributed to a collaborative CSA, is now spearheading a new program. Rise and Shine Farms had to order more chickens to meet the demand. And Grow For Me is introducing a personal farmer program to our list of local food options.
For weeks I've been chatting with people looking for advice on how to cowpool, wanting to talk about CSAs, and asking about seasonality and cooking at home. And they're loving it.
I've said it before....Woo Hoo!
