I'm looking for a CSA in the N Tx area. Help!!
From: Susan, Director/Board Member
TOFGA Region II
Cherie,
There are several sources near FW for organic produce, as well as, for meat products. The TOFGA conference that was in Mesquite late January had an organic new farmers workshop to help encourage additional local farms, csa's, etc.
Heaven Sent Produce www.heavensentproduce.com is in Arlington off of S. Cooper exiting I-20. Coleen Thornton there plans on starting a CSA next year and has a pick-up at her home with foods she is currently growing.
Lavender Hill Farms will have organic produce on their property for the picking estimating their start date in March.
There is another farm on S. Bowen between Arbrook and Pleasant Ridge that will have produce & berries. They are in Arlington.
