We just joined a CSA for the 2009 season! Our new farm is called Red Earth Farm in Orwigsburg, PA and they have a drop off site in West Philly. We will be getting a partial share (6 items a week) which should be plenty for the three of us (me, M and Jonathan).

The difference between joining a CSA on the east versus the west coast is that the season here in Philly goes from June through November instead of all year long. So we made our investment for the whole growing season and we are now a partner in the process, having put our faith in the farmers and Mother Nature to give us a season full of yummy veggies.
Until June I am keeping my spirits up by looking at the pictures in this CSA Flickr pool.

Congratulations! That's so fun. It will be cool to see how your CSA varies in product from the one in Davis. Mike and I were just commenting on the sad state of our gardening--we've pretty much abandoned our sad little cabbages that we planted too late!
