Community Supported Agriculture in Maine

With over 140 farms and 6,200 shares, Maine's CSA community is transforming relationships with food and farms. There is no formula to a CSA. Each is unique as the community supporting it. The bottom line is that people make commitments to farms, and in return farmers make commitments to produce for their members the freshest, most flavorful, highest quality food possible.

Just in Knox County alone there's 10 farms offering share programs. What's better than that? Fresh produce every week right off the farm!

  1. Nice link :) Does this list also include the Fish CSA? Isn't it down in T-Harbor?

  2. This Sunday (Feb. 28) there's a local CSA and Fisheries event at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Rockland from 1-4. Several farms and fisheries will be there. It's sponsored by MOFGA and they can be contacted for more information.
