Kiss Kornucopia, a non-profit Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, is reshaping the local food landscape by fostering connections between farmers and the community. By offering CSA Farm Share memberships, the organization provides an opportunity for food enthusiasts to support local agriculture while enjoying fresh, seasonal produce.
What is a CSA?
Community Supported Agriculture is a model that allows members to directly support local farmers by paying upfront for a share of the season’s harvest. This arrangement ensures that farmers have the resources they need to plant and grow their crops while members receive a weekly supply of fresh, locally grown vegetables. The result? A partnership that benefits the farmers, the community, and the environment.
Kiss Kornucopia’s CSA memberships focus on connecting people to fresh, nutrient-rich produce that reflects the local growing seasons. Members are encouraged to embrace a “veggie-forward” lifestyle, exploring new recipes and flavors while boosting their health with produce rich in essential vitamins and minerals.
A Vision for Community Health and Resilience
Kiss Kornucopia is planning to expand its CSA membership to establish a community-supported grocery in downtown Kissimmee. This initiative will strengthen community bonds, promote local health, and support small businesses. Board Member Leia Perez emphasizes, “We believe in the power of food to connect people to the earth and to each other.”
By consuming locally grown food, members contribute to a resilient food economy. This approach reduces food miles, minimizes packaging, and helps create a sustainable local food system that benefits both the environment and the economy.
