Omaha Home for Boys Introduces Produce With Purpose CSA
New in 2018, Omaha Home for Boys Cooper Farm is offering memberships to its Produce with Purpose CSA (Community Supported Agriculture). The Produce with Purpose CSA provides members with a weekly share of fresh, locally-grown fruits and vegetables throughout the summer and fall growing seasons and also allows participants to support the Home’s mission at the same time.
Youth from Omaha Home for Boys work alongside Cooper Farm’s staff tending crops and learning valuable job skills at the farm. The youth will play an integral role in preparing Produce with Purpose fruits and vegetables from seed to members’ tables.
Full share and half share produce options are available as well as farm fresh eggs. The first pick-up day will be June 1 at Omaha Home for Boys main campus at 52nd & Ames Street.
