Passage 1 1. Community supported agriculture (CSA) refers to farmers selling directly to consumers. Local consumers pay for a share of produce, generally well in advance of the harvest. This allows the farmer a source of funds for seeds, fertilizer, and other farm needs. Then, for a predetermined period of time, the consumers receive a portion of the harvest.
