So three months have passed since we "laid the foundation" for this site, and four North Atlanta communities have been barreling ahead on their sustainability efforts, captured regularly on various blogs and websites.
The fun part? We all know each other, and we're all in constant email communication. If something is happening or about to happen in one of the communities, the others know about it and weigh in on it immediately. If someone needs advice on a particular sustainability topic, chances are one of us can pull through for the others.
Most of us cross paths on Wednesdays at the Peachtree Corners CSA drop. That's Judy in Charlotte of Riverview Farms' truck. The Chain of Humanity of CSA members lines up and passes the boxes from hands to hands each and every week. And we are connected.
In an effort to make a more powerful impact and make it easier for you to see what's happening regarding communitiy sustainability initiatives, we'll be updating this blog with links to new entries on the individual sites. Look for exciting announcements of group efforts as well. We'll also be adding resources you can use in your daily home life and in your community. As my teenage daughter told me the other night, "You know what? I've realized something. Together we can do great things. Alone we are small."

Hi! I am reading "In Defense of Food" by Michael Pollan, and would really like to find a CSA in this area. Can you tell me how to get in touch with the Peachtree Corners CSA? I can't find a web site or contact number on Google.
Glad to see this blog.
Thanks!
James
