School Farm CSA
A selection of images taken at School Farm Community Supported Agriculture project in Dartington, Devon.
A CSA is a partnership between farmers & consumers which benefits the community and the environment. Members commit to buying a share of the harvest for a full growing season. That way farmers know exactly how much veg to grow. Food waste is reduced and so is the carbon footprint of the farm as consumers get their veg boxes from a local pick-up point. Community Supported Agriculture projects are found to be better for biodiversity as they grow seasonal produce, reducing the use of pesticides. Overall, they are eco-friendlier and more sustainable than mainstream farms.
These images capture the various seasons on this farm, the people who work there and the wider community.
