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 of-

fice. The CSA program runs for 18
weeks beginning 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 subscrip-
tions is limited, so people are encour-
aged to complete their form quickly.
