http://www.angelicorganics.com is a large CSA farm in Illinois. It is just one of many that are very large.
5 years ago we decided to jump in, head first and learn how to run a 63 acre organic farm. What we weren't expecting was how much this farm would teach us valuable life lessons. This blog is the story of our experiences and learnings.

Learning
I should add that CSA farms do go over 40 families, many are much much larger than that. Hundreds of shares. Locally here in Baltimore I have not found many large CSA farms. And our garden at 1/4 to 1/2 acre will feed many more than 5 families. We will be donating excess food and also selling excess produce at times at the local farmer's market. In addition we are planning on experimenting with different methods of preservation, drying, canning and freezing.
