David and Michael — Thanks for the info! I’ll put together a roundup of CSAs in the area soon –

mb — Good point! Bike Girl emailed to suggest something similar. Now I just need to figure out if the closest drop off site for Tierra Miguel is in biking distance for me (I’m kinda wimpy).

siel: i’ve seen bikers with a few bags hanging off of the handlebars; is this something you could do? i always transfer my tierra miguel box into a couple of cotton bags (2 amoeba bags is about right) before leaving the pickup site and heading onto the bus so as to avoid the unwieldy box…

I have two options in my area of Southern Orange county. I use http://www.southcoastfarms.com as I’ve been a very happy subscriber the last 2 years. Each quarter is $235 for a basket every other week full of fresh delicious fruits and veggies. I have always been very satisfied with the quality of the produce.
Another option I have is http://www.morningsongfarm.com. Due to being so happy with my current one haven’t seen a real need to investigate them much.
