CSA Recommendations?

[swaan.livejournal.com]

I need to find a new CSA this year, and so I'm looking for recommendations on ones that have pickups in Davis or close by.

(I love the farm I had a share with the last two years, Warner Farm, but they deliver to my university, and I'm hoping to graduate this summer.)

Thanks, everyone! Those all look like great options. They're probably typical, but they seem expensive to me (and probably more food than I need as a single person). I forget that one of the draws of Warner Farm is their small share for only $300. With an additional fruit share, I've been paying only $400 a season.

Has anyone ever done a work-share? First Root has one, and they're in Concord.

We've been with Parker Farms for a long time, and love it. The small share is still pretty big -- I think it feeds 2-3 people weekly. But you can split a share if that's your preference. See if someone else wants to do so, maybe? :)

It's a bit more (around $500 for a small share) but I love World Peas. They include fruit so you don't need a separate fruit share and sometimes you get something like honey or cider. It's a collaborative rather than one farm. They do have a work-share option but you need to be free to do it during the work week.
