Transition in Action 4: Setting up a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
Loading...
Uploaded by 2009peakoil on Jul 26, 2011
At Culberry Nursery in Angmering, West Sussex (4 miles west of Worthing), Martin Jarvis is taking the first steps to set up a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Project.
A meeting in May 2011 established the level of interest, as local Angmering residents and members of Transition Town Worthing discussed ideas of how a local CSA could work. A CSA works as a food grower by a community subscribing to a scheme, whether through committing to a regular veggie box, or paying a monthly or annual subscription.
Some food is already being grown at Culberry as part of a community project. The CSA group are now looking at additional land in the locality that would be suitable for growing on a larger scale.
The creation of a local CSA is an important step towards Worthing's response to energy descent and rebuilding local resilience.
