When you buy into a community-supported agriculture (CSA) system, you're buying groceries before they've grown. In early spring, you hand over a chunk of change (usually between $400 and $600) to a local farm in exchange for a "share," about six months' worth of produce for four people.

Cheap Industrial Food Comes at a High Pricenew
As far as our understanding of where our food comes from, the image of a grazing cow is about as much as most of us want to know.
