Agritourism or

Agro-tourism

A type of tourism that allows visitors to experience agricultural life first-hand; see page 15 for some farm destinations near you!

CSA Abbreviation stands for Community Supported Agriculture; a type of business organization where customers buy “shares” of the farm’s garden. Typically, the share consists of a certain amount of fresh produce throughout the season. Contact your local CSA to find out more about what they offer their Share Members.

Farmers’ Market

A group of farmers who get together on a set schedule to sell their products all at one location; see page 14 for a listing on your local Farmers’ Markets.

Locavore Someone who eats food that is produced locally or within a cer-tain radius (50, 100, or 150 miles). The locavore movement en-courages consumers to buy local foods with the argument that local products are more nutritious and taste better. Locally grown food is an environmentally friendly means of obtaining food, since supermarkets that import their food use more fossil fuels and non-renewable resources.

All Natural Legally, a food can be labeled “natural” if it does not contain artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients, hormones, or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed. Many producers use the term “all natural” to describe the philosophy behind their production.

Organic Only farms that go through the certification process can label their food organic. The process is expensive, and many small farms choose to forgo certification even though their own prac-tices meet or exceed those required. Organic standards vary, but generally include: Prohibition on synthetic chemicals, irradia-tion, or genetically modified organisms, farmland that has been free of the above for three years, detailed records of practices used, and periodic on-site inspections.

Sustainable Agriculture

Most define sustainable as three-pronged: environmental stew-ardship, farm profitability, and prosperous farming communities. Sustainable farming practices is a growing trend.

U-Pick This term refers to an added feature some farms incorporate where families can come pick their own fruits or vegetables.
