CSA 2010 -- Sign Up at the Farm!
We're changing things up a bit this year. In an effort to know each of our members, and to have an opportunity to build lasting relationships rather than a consumers CSA, we will be doing sign ups at the farm! Come meet the family, spin a beeswax top or enjoy a cup of tea. Our first date for gathering is Saturday January 23 from 10-1
10145 Oxford Rd, Longmont, CO 80504
Please RSVP 303.485.7818 or info@eatabbo.org,
Our sign up dates are 1/31 from 11-3; and 2/6 from 10-2.
Dream Share!
This three-year program assists in bringing permanence to local farming while adding more local food stuffs to your refrigerator. Dream Shares may also include seeds and plant starts as well as consultation in case you are an aspiring gardener as well as a local farm supporter. With just 50 Dream Share members added each year, at the low cost of $3300.00, we will perennialize our dream and add to the long-term sustainability of our planet and her resources. We are striving for 60 new members in 2010. Abbondanza has made the leap, all we need is for our community to step up and support. Gift shares are an option as well and go directly to supporting the food insecure community through CSA membership thus building a bridge to food sovereignty in Boulder County.

Each year, an estimated 911 million pounds of synthetic pesticides are applied to conventional agricultural crops throughout the United States – looking upon the globe, the number reaches 5 billion.Quotes
"There seem to be but three ways for a nation to acquire wealth. The first is by war, as the Romans did, in plundering their neighbors. This is robbery. The second by commerce, which is generally cheating. The third is by agriculture, the only honest way, wherein man receives a real increase of the seed thrown into the ground, in a kind of continual miracle, wrought by the hand of God in his favor, as reward for his innocent life and his virtuous industry."~Benjamin Franklin
