Abstract

Community-supported agriculture--Washington (State) Community-supported agriculture--Economic aspects.
As consumer demand for fresh, local fruits and vegetables grows, more Washington State farms are looking into the community-supported agriculture (CSA) model for increasing farm sales. There are multiple considerations when developing a CSA system, as it may require new ways of thinking about crop planning and labor needs, as well as an understanding of the market, development of shareholder relationships, and additional recordkeeping.
