Three simple ways you can enjoy fresh, local produce:

   Visit the local farmers' market. Visit localharvest.org/ or ams.usda.gov/farmersmarkets/map.htm to find one in your area.

   Join a Community Supported Agriculture group (CSA). CSA members prepay a fixed seasonal fee to a local farmer in exchange for a weekly share of the harvest, delivered to a location near your home. For information on joining a CSA group near you, go to nal.usda.gov/afsic/csa, sare.org/csa or justfood.org.
