Meet the Farmer March 15th: Thank You For Joining Us

Hi everyone,

We saw familiar faces coming back for this years CSA and new faces excited to join the CSA funnest. Everyone were asking questions and the intersections were mutual and exciting. This brought positive energy and a great start of this year's Parkchester CSA season.

Parkchester CSA is thanking you for passing by and listening to Cheryl Rogowski, a wonderful farmer and Also for sharing your thoughts and questions. We are looking forward to see you very soon. I believe that we will arrange a farm trip on March 29th.

Parkchester CSA Featured on BronxNet Live on March 3rd 2014 --Watch the Video Here!

Lizzette Bonfante, membership coordinator of Parkchester CSA talks about the great opportunities the Bronx residences have when joining a Community Supported Agriculture group. The CSA member learns about W. Rogowski Farm, gets to eat fresh, local vegetables that are delivered to the Bronx straight from the farm. The CSA member has the chance to not only have this, but to also engage closer with the farm and farmer that grows their food. The middle men which is the supermarket no longer exists. Parkchester CSA is all about the relationship with the community, the food and the land that grows it.

If you are interested in being part of your community and eating fresh, local vegetables that are free from chemicals, GMOs and pesticides, join us this year. It is a good investment to your packet, to your health and to the environment/ecosystem.

UPCOMING EVENT: Meet the Farmer--Cheryl Rogowski. March 15th 10am to 12pm at St.Paul Lutheran Evangelical Church: 1891 McGraw Avenue, Bronx, New York 10462 (in the basement)
