Does anyone here in the Texas ( DFW AREA ) have any resources for ( CSA'S ) Community Supported Agriculture or CO-OP's. We are in Collin County but open to other areas of DFW.
We would like it for fruits and Veggies but I would also love to find one for eggs and Dairy.
Try localharvest.com.
Eating whole foods from local farmers is fabulous !
Hey SoonerMom!
I am involved in a CSA in Denton called Earthwise Gardens, and I LOVE it!!

It's not just organic produce, but it's locally grown (Texas) and it's sustainably grown as well. Denton is a long haul from Allen, but I do know our CSA gets it's beef from over in McKinney. There is a local farmer/rancher who started a storefront called Local Yocal in downtown McKinney. http://localyocalfarmtomarket.com/
It can be a GREAT resource for you. They can probably connect you with a CSA or Farm Co-Op in your area for the produce.
As far as milk, if you want raw milk you have to buy direct from the farmer. Texas law will not allow a 3rd party seller of raw milk. There are grass fed, raw milk farmers in your area, you just have to find them. Someone suggested Local Harvest website. GREAT resource to check. You can also try www.eatwild.com
Hope this helps!!
God's Grace to you,

I was going to recommend bountiful baskets for you fruit and veggies. Dairy you may need to hit the farmer's markets.
The cool think about bountiful basket is that it gives you neat and sometimes "unusual" veggies, etc. It really helps broaden your horizon on what you can cook/make and eat:)
I don't live in Dfw, but there is a company called Bountiful Basket that is a co-op type of deal that specializes in getting locally grown produce to you. Google it for their website. HTH!
