For those who don’t know what a CSA it is–it stands for Community Supported Agriculture. Members pay for a season of produce ahead of time and receive deliveries of fresh, season food each week from local farmers. Founder Wen-Jay Ying tells Untapped, “The CSA program stems from my past experience creating and assisting CSAs at Red Jacket Orchards, Just Food, and The Piggery, and also being a member myself. I often found there were some limitations because the majority were volunteer organized (very dedicated volunteers mind you) and the farms are generally too busy farming. The Local Roots CSA aims to cater to New York City residents as well as the farmers. We hope to make CSA more accessible to people beyond those that are already interested in the local food movement, and we work to bring more attention to our hard working farmers. There seems to also be a growing demand for CSA in the city but the amount of CSAs are unable to keep up with the demand. Local Roots NYC will start up CSAs in neighborhoods that residents request to fulfill this demand.”
