Veganmofo: We have a CSA share with Pete's Greens!
I have just been notified that we were able to get a CSA share with Pete's Greens. We will be splitting this share with another couple as the fall-winter share is veggies and localvore products and although they can make the share vegetarian they are unable to make it vegan so there will be eggs and dariy products, however the couple we are splitting with are willing to take the animal products in exchange for vegan localvore products. Neil and I have wanted to do this for awhile and we are so excited about it. For $23 a week for 17 weeks we will be receiving localvore products and local organic vegetables how can you not love it. I find that this will be really inspiring to take on the challenge of using produce that is either foreign to us or not something we use in our everyday lives.

That's an interesting CSA that has all of those other products. I've been thinking of joining one here in Seattle, but haven't done it yet.
yeah we are really excited about this one. we buy stuff from them at the market all the time and figured might as well join!
the eggs and dairy are the only things that keep me from doing this. That's awesome you found someone to share this with so nothing goes to waste.
CSAs are great! I had one when I was living in Seattle. There are so many there and most all are year-round.
BTW, thank you for sharing your comment on my post about the tempeh here in Canada.
What part of New Brunswick are you from?

Ah, Vermont is supposed to be an awesome state. I have a vegan friend who went to school in Burlington and loved it.
