Tuv Ha'aretz: Community Supported Agriculture
Registration is Now Closed.
(closed as of May 1, 2008)
Chicago Tuv Ha’aretz, the new Community-Supported Agriculture program that is a partnership between Anshe Emet Synagogue and the Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel Congregation. Tuv Ha’aretz has contracted a local farmer to provide fresh, sustainably grown vegetables to Tuv Ha’aretz members weekly starting June 4 and continuing into December. The farmer will deliver fresh farm produce each Wednesday to Anshe Emet or Anshe Sholom for pickup by shareholders. In joining, members buy a share for which they receive fresh vegetables, fruit, herbs, and eggs in time for Shabbat each week.
