For your CSA to be a success, you need to know what that looks like and the steps needed to get there. What equipment and infrastructure do you need? How much do you need to produce? What wages and contractor’s fees will you
budget for? Will shares be collected or delivered? Will you have additional sources of income? What if something goes wrong? Like any other business, a CSA needs a plan.

This session will give you the guidance you need to start planning these fundamental aspects for the long-term viability and thrive-ability of your CSA.

Gareth Davies of Canalside and Five Acre CSAs and Ed Hamer of Chagfood CSA are instrumental in running three well-established and successful CSAs. Hear about their experiences and bring your financial and business planning questions.

There are just 12 places available on this webinar.
