[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the DMV I get home delivery from South Mountain Creamery and do a year- round produce CSA. (This is OP) For other areas, do a google search for CSAs and your city name. [/quote] Wait, you are claiming that SMC is *cheaper* than other grocery options? That's absurd. We ordered it for years, and finally gave it up because it became affordable (or at least irresponsible). [/quote] Yes, it’s definitely more. It’s less than the organic milk we were buying at grocery but more than conventional milk. We still buy it because we like it and also I suspect the local milk has more nutrition per ounce — milk actually loses its nutrients with age, so it’s possible the local stuff has more nutrition per $ than grocery store stuff, but that’s hard to say. Same with the meat—it’s more expensive than the cheap stuff but competitively priced if you’re only looking at the antibiotic free and hormone free meat. [/quote]
