Default New CSA in the Lakes Region

The new Big Banana Community Supported Agriculture consists of families in the Lakes Region who want fresh, all-natural, and/or organic vegetables and fruits, but find prices for them kind of high. By pooling money in a form of Community Supported Agriculture (or CSA) , they can buy in bulk directly from the farms and get what they need at a more reasonable price.

Their goals are to:
* provide healthy, fresh, locally-grown fruits and vegetables for their families at lower prices;
* encourage and support smaller, local farmers and producers; and
* increase the quality and quantity of foods for the poor and needy through local charities.

The above pretty much copied from their homepage. Check 'em out at BigBanana.org.
