What is CSA?

C - Community

S - Supported

A - Agriculture

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a localized food system that directly links farmer and consumer. It is a relationship which benefits everyone. Farmers share the risks of weather and “varmints” with shareholders, and the shareholders enjoy the freshest natural products possible. The land is carefully managed with consideration for future generations moving us all a step closer to a more sustainable form of agriculture. In exchange for their financial support, shareholders receive a bag of freshly harvested and frozen beef of their share choice every month. Pick-up locations are at TJ Meats in Albany.

Community supported agriculture is a new idea in farming, one that has been gaining momentum since its introduction to the United States from Europe in the mid-1980s. The CSA concept originated in the 1960s in Switzerland and Japan, where consumers interested in safe food and farmers seeking stable markets for their crops joined together in economic partnerships. Today, there are more than 400 CSAs in the U.S.

Rolling Hills Traeger Ranch CSA Program

With Rolling Hills CSA Program, you have the opportunity to purchase a larger quantity of Beef or Pork, such as a Whole, Half or Quarter Beef or Pork and have it delivered to a local site in smaller quantities we call shares. Each whole beef or pork portion is shared amongst Rolling Hills CSA customers, assuring that each monthly share is fresh, rather than sitting in your freezer for up to six months or sometimes even a year. Purchasing of CSA shares locks in pricing so you don't have to worry about fluctuating markets.
