It’s time to start thinking about the deluge of fresh, locally grown produce that will be pouring into markets and filling CSA boxes in a matter of weeks.
One of the things that makes City Fresh stand out is that it falls in a gap between the two. It’s kind of a market and kind of a CSA — but not a CSA where you have to lay out big money to subscribe for an entire season. You can place orders week by week, based on what you need and your income. They have limited-income discounts as well, to promote their mission of putting fresh, healthy, local food within reach of everyone. You also have some latitude to choose what you need and will use.
Its season is coming up, starting on Tuesday June 14, with stops at 15 locations across Cuyahoga and Lorain counties Tuesdays through Fridays. You can order online, by email or mail and you can order with SNAP as well.
