Finding ways to fit organic foods into your budget is really not much different than any other endeavor of frugality.

For many, the end of the year holiday shopping frenzy can override our saner, more thrifty selves. Spending our precious and all too limited time searching online and in stores.

CSAs cut out the middle man (the grocery store) between your family and the farms in your area. Sometimes, a CSA will require the fee to be paid up front for the year, but you’ll find that it’s much less expensive than buying the produce that you would get in your bin from the CSA at the grocery store.
