The Kentucky Department of Agriculture is hosting a virtual “CSA week” to highlight community supported agriculture farms across the state, starting today. The event is designed as a way for consumers to connect with farmers to receive CSA shares.
According to Sean Southard, Director of Public Affairs and Communications at the Kentucky Department of Agriculture, “A CSA [share] is a way for consumers to sign up or subscribe to local farms and farmers on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly basis.”
He said these subscriptions provide a “box of Kentucky proud farm goods that can range from produce to protein and honey and flowers.”
