Rene Poulin hosted an informational session at the Chetwynd Public Library to discuss community supported agriculture. He argued CSA reconnects consumers with local farmers, reduces reliance on the agribusiness model, and could launch in 2010 with a $200 to $600 annual share while highlighting learnings from the 100 Mile Diet concept.
