For me, it crystallizes in eloquent prose (almost poetry to my ears!) many of the values here at Frog Hollow Farm as well as the essential principals of the CSA movement. \n\nCommunity trumps profits! Sustainability bests growth! And the health of our children as well as the health of the planet are at steak. \n\nAttend the conference at Fort Mason if you\u2019d like to meet the folks in person, and especially if you\u2019d like to invest in your local food system.  \n\nWith an eye toward the future, \n\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/happychildcsa.com\/assets\/FarmerAlSig.gif\" width=\"250\" alt=\"Signature of Farmer Al\"> \n\n\n<b>Happy Child CSA News <\/b>\n\nA Pear Affair\n\nSet your calendars for October 23rd, from 11 am to 3 pm.
