Although I really enjoyed it we are going to pass this year. We do frequent the farmers markets. I love the South of the James vibe on Saturdays but if I don't have a lot of time I run to the Robious market near my house on Thursday mornings. I also just put in my first order from Relay Foods. They have meats and veggies from many of the CSA's at great prices and there is not fee or commitment. We did Dominion harvest last year as well.

I love CSA's but they an be expensive and last year we got a lot more greens that our family could ever eat. The Farm Table brings produce to you and all for the low price of $25.75 per week (+tax) and they have a $50 registration fee, the best part though is that you can opt out of you are not going to be home.

They have 6 weekly drop off locations in the Richmond Area & it runs for 26 weeks (June through November). Makes me feel good to support a local farm & to feed my family healthy natural foods. :-) We do the CSA through Frog Bottom Farm (http://frogbottomfarm.com/) out of Appomattox.
