Pikes Peak Urban Gardens
Our mission is to cultivate community through organic gardening
and sustainable urban farm projects in the Pikes Peak region.
Community Supported
Agriculture
is a system by which eaters are more involved with food growers.
Notice I didn't
say suppliers, the intent is for you to be closer to the
source of your
daily bread. It's an awesome feeling to actually know the
farmer who grows your food.
CSA's come in several forms, the closest connection you can have with your
farmer/rancher
is to buy a share in their operation. You get a percentage
of the harvest but also share in the risk of things like frosts and hail.
