Connecting You to Your Farmer
FairShare CSA Coalition connects you with your farmer through Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). We are a coalition of 50 small, organic family farms who connect you to fresh, local food.
From our Facebook Page
Want an easy way to support FairShare in making local food accessible to all? You can pledge your support through Community Shares of Wisconsin's workplace giving program! By setting up an automatic payroll deduction, your dollars will ensure that we can continue to support small family farms and make local produce more affordable.
