I don't subscribe to a CSA because I'm just one person and even a half-share is too much for me. I do grow alot of my own produce, however, and I'm currently swimming in kale and collards that have overwintered in my garden. I really like it just cooked down in some olive oil and garlic and served as a side dish to fish or chicken. It's also very good in omelettes instead of spinach, just cook it a bit before you add the eggs. Kale chips are great, too, very tasty and easy to make.

I don't currently grow any fruit other than strawberries, and I miss the fruit that I would get from a CSA. I plan to plant some raspberries this year, though, and maybe even a few apple trees if I get really productive. The local farmers markets provide what I don't grow.

I really like the idea of CSAs, but it's just too much for one person, in my experience.
