Description

Many veggie and fruit growers are quick to write off home delivery as inefficient without considering the value it can add to their farm produce.
For small-scale farmers whose customer base is urban, a well-structured CSA with home delivery can be more profitable and efficient than selling at the farmers’ market, and more appealing than drop-off points.
In this short talk, veggie grower Jordan Marr will discuss the operation of his home-delivered CSA, and how to structure such a program to maximize the benefits to your farm.
This talk was presented at PV2 in March 2015 by Jordan Marr.
