Farmers To You Pick Up
The BCIA is an official pick-up location for Farmers to You, a year-round on-line farm to table grocer that connects families directly with farmers to improve access to high quality, consciously grown food and expand markets for sustainable farmers in New England. Unlike other community supported agriculture programs, this organization allows you to choose the food you want and pay as you go via credit card and a convenient website.
