I've been meaning to go to farmer's markets more for produce and to see what's out there, do you know where I can go for a good one? I'm in the Hartford area

I tried posting this earlier but it didn't show up as a thread, just a "post" so I've made it an "article"

Coventry and and Lebanon have them weekly if you want to go out to the country a little way.

I found that a lot of Farmers markets are way priced up. They just aren't worth it. I would suggest signing up for a CSA close to you. That way you will be supporting local farmers and you'll get part of the crop each week.

What does CSA stand for in this context?

I believe it means "crop share agreement".

Thank you! I had to ask because I’m used to seeing that acronym used in a very different context, where it has a very different meaning.
