Trinity Lutheran Offers CSA Subscriptions

While all are waiting for warmer weather, leaders at Trinity Lutheran Church are busy

planning their summer garden and are now accepting applications for people to pur-
chase a subscription to their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. CSAs
are a popular garden-to-consumer program that encourages people to support farm-
ers by purchasing a weekly box of produce. Trinity is offering a CSA as part of their
efforts to raise money to fund their small food pantry in Durand and to financially
support the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America World Hunger program.

Members of Trinity Lutheran Church have always had a passion for their ministry to
provide nutritious food to people, especially those who are experiencing food scarci-
ty. This garden is one more way Trinity
can continue their work by providing
consumers with fresh produce right out of
the garden while at the same time
raising money to fill the small food pantry
during the winter months.

Applications and further information about
Trinity’s CSA program are available on
their website www.trinitydurand.com or
by stopping by the church office.
The CSA program runs for 18 weeks begin-
ning June 9, 2019 and ending October 6,
2019. Weekly pick-up will be on Sundays
at the church (15585 Durand Rd. Durand,
IL) from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The
number of subscriptions is limited, so peo-

ple are encouraged to complete their form
quickly.
