Plans are underway for our 2011 CSA Day at the Market, February 26th — mark your calendars! This special event will take place at the Winter Farmers’ Market in Rollinsford, and is a great opportunity to meet the farmers and ask questions. With CSA’s expanding, there are many choices available now: product options, pick-up locations, and seasonal shares. Come and find the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) or CSF (Community Supported Fishery) right for you. Visit Seacoast Eat Local for a list of participating farms and fishermen, and information on choosing a CSA.

Addendum: Registration for Eastman’s Fish CSF for the 2011 Summer Season is now also open!
