The Kansas City CSA Coalition ("KCCSAC") is a project of the Kansas City Food Circle, created to:

• Promote the concept and mission of Community Supported Agriculture ("CSA")
• Assist CSA farmers who serve the Kansas City metro with marketing, promotion, public relations, and organization
• Help "eaters" in the Kansas City metro area locate CSA farms and secure productive annual memberships with them
• Create and maintain a resource center for both established CSA farmers and those considering starting new CSA operations

We look forward to seeing you there!

Help Keep the Kansas City Community Recycling Centers OPEN!
The City Council of Kansas City is once again facing challenging issues as it considers budget cuts for 2009. It is important that we thank the council for support of the Community Recycling Centers and remind them of the importance of keeping the centers open. Please call or e-mail your City Council Representative to thank them for their support of the Community Recycling Centers and ask them to make sure that funding is continued to keep them open. You can find council members’ phone numbers and e-mail addresses at www.kcmo.org. Want to do more? Attend one of the City Council budget hearings and speak on behalf of the Recycling Centers. To be placed on the schedule of speakers call the City Council at 816-513-1368.	Kansas City Community Recycling Centers
