Erin Bullock, a Fairport native who recently returned to the area, is initiating the first season of Mudcreek Farm, a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Project located in Victor, NY this spring. In this week's episode of Indy TV, Erin explains what a CSA is and how it works. Erin began with an explanation of how CSA's are of mutual benefit to both farmers and consumers:"It's a really creative way for a farmer and a consumer to have a direct relationship with each other, so that the consumer knows exactly where their food is coming from. They can ensure that its organic, that its safe, that the workers are treated well... just to have that direct link. They can also go to the farm and see how their food is grown, ... and for the farmer it's a really great way to market directly to the person that will eat your food, you don't have to go through a "middle man", there's no huge shipping costs, and retail grocery stores taking cuts."
