Thou shalt love, honor and cherish my share

Thou shalt eat my greens, even if it means pureeing it into my kids’ brownies

Thou shalt share my bounty with my family and friends

Thou shalt not “freak out” if I find that a bug has nibbled on my lettuce first

Thou shalt trust that my farmer Farmer Frank grows my food sustainably and with a little magic

Thou shalt not always come early to my pick-up and steal the prettiest tomatoes

Thou shalt expect and appreciate a little dirt on my parsnip

Thou shalt give my share to my neighbor, if I plan to be out of town that week

Thou shalt giggle with joy as I bite into my sweet corn without doing a thing to it but taking the husk off

Thou shalt be proud to be a member of a CSA so that we may continue to have family farms
