The Borntragers began delivering produce from their farm about 15 years ago, Zahradka said.

"They live close by and my wife started helping them with deliveries. About five years ago, when it could no longer fit in the back seat of her car, I started with my pick-up (truck)," Zahradka said.

In 2009, the Borntrager CSA had 56 customers. "This was our best year," said Zahradka, who added that participation is growing each year.

Although area CSAs offer produce starting in the spring, eggs from the Borntrager farm are available all year long.
