What they do:

It’s our goal to take over an organic vegetable nursery to grow and supply our own regional food. With this community, we are indpendent from industrial structures and can decide ourselves what we grow and how. To reach our goal, we are going to found a so-called “Community Supported Agriculture” (CSA). Think global, act local
