If you’re searching for examples of CSAs really building and feeding communities, look no further than Petaluma Bounty.
Petaluma Bounty is a four-part system meant to change the way people of all ages and income brackets get their food.
1. Bounty Farm, an urban farm.
2. Bounty Box, a weekly CSA sold wholesale to low-income families.
3. Community Gardens, there are four, including three at elementary schools.
4. Bounty Hunters, aimed at harvesting healthy fruits and veggies grown by backyard gardeners.
