Thinking of a Farm Share for 2012?

We know eating our fruits and veggies are good for us but it can be hard to shop for and prepare them.  One convenient alternative to doing the shopping yourself is joining a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture).  They deliver a “share” of produce each week (or every other week, depending on the CSA) to a location near you.  Just Google your city along with the term farm share for a location near you in the Boulder/Lafayette/Louisville area.
