Judging from this article in the Standard Times, Community supported agriculture (CSA) is a growth industry in Dartmouth (pun intended). Local food is healthy food and there are several Dartmouth farms mentioned. Think about buying a share, you'll be surprised at the wonderful taste of fresh local products. UMass Dartmouth hosts the Southeastern Massachusetts Agricultural Partnership which lists local CSA farms, farms stands, and other local food resources at this web site.
I was also interested in read that community supported fisheries are gaining favor. Sounds like a great way ...
... to help support our local fishermen and get the freshest seafood. If the catch is not dragged up in indiscriminate quantities and species in seines and nets, it will be much more sustainable and friendlier to the ecosystem. Does anyone know if there is a local outlet for community supported fishing?

Thanks for posting this Bill. I have been looking for a local source for grass fed, free range meat. This list from SMAP is the best source I have been able to find. Have you tried the new fish market down the south end of NB? It is only open Thurs. - Sat. Great source for local fresh seafood and the prices can't be beat.
