After spending an amazing week on vacation in the Abruzzo Provence of Italy, I was delighted to come home to my first fruit, vegetable and egg distribution through the Tribeca CSA -- the perfect antidote for carbohydrate overload! I was also delighted to read that through our support, the La Baraja Farm was able to purchase a new tractor this year (see below). Community supported agriculture can really make a difference.

La Baraja Farm is a member of the New Farmer Development Program. This is a fascinating video clip about the organization and the important work that they do:
