CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Signups are available to become a 2016 Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) member and the summer youth program for the Food Initiative.
A full share holder receives a box every week of the growing season. As a half share holder customers will receive a box every other week. The season tentatively begins the first week of May and continues through mid to late October.
The CSA member produce is delivered in half bushel boxes and usually includes 6-10 varieties of seasonal produce. The program strives to grow the food in a way that protects the health of the land, their workers, animals, and customers.
You can find out more information or signup at their website.
The Food Initiative is also looking for students 15 to 17 years old that attend a Clarksville/Montgomery County School, Fort Campbell School, or are homeschooled in the area. The students will receive an $800 stipend at the full completion for the four week program. Applicants must come in for an interview and fill out an application.
