Registration is now open for the Global Greens Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. The vegetables in the shares are all grown using organic practices by former refugees who are establishing small vegetable farming businesses in the Des Moines area and can be picked up just across the street at Lutheran Services in Iowa (3200 University Avenue) on Tuesday afternoons. Be a part of helping Des Moines’ newest residents expand their businesses, support a healthy local food system and eat great vegetables all at the same time! A weekly share of vegetables costs $504, or $28 per week for 18 weeks. Sign up today at www.lsiowa.org/csa.
