Second, the CSA model is a way to ensure the continuance of small locally owned and operated farms, an increasing rarity these days. The CSA members share the risk and rewards of farming. The shares are non-refundable. In some years, you get more than you expected, but there is always a chance you might get less in some seasons. In essence, the idea is that the community makes a commitment to the farm, and the farmer sticks it out through thick and thin.
