Coopérative pour l’agriculture de proximité écologique – CAPÉ, a non profit organization located in Montreal at 1401 rue Legendre, suite 307, 514-543-1103, has information on the community supported agriculture network in Quebec, representing over 160 participating farms [https://www.fermierdefamille.org/en]
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a growing movement in the United States and Canada, which has provided economic support and predictability to farmers, practicing traditional family farming, that they will be able to continue to farm, and that communities will be able to enjoy fresh, local farm products. Partnering with local farms by purchasing a “share” in the season’s harvest, consumers can know where their food is coming from and have the satisfaction of supporting local agriculture. Participants, who purchase their shares early in the season, provide the farmer with a stable income, and in return they receive a weekly supply of fresh local farm products.
