CSAs & The EconomyYour local farmers need to make a living. CSA farmers are not faring well, but earn $1,280 above nationwide average of all farmers. It's important to support local farmers.
CSAs have roots in Japan, in the 1970s. Their version of CSA was called Teiki-and essentially the same as American CSA. CSA didn't take off in the US until a decade later.
