Feeding the World, One Box at a Time
Cultural CSA
RGI’s Cultural CSA is more than a produce box—it is an educational and cultural experience.
Subscribers can explore one of five cuisine pathways:
Latin
African
Middle Eastern
South Asian
Southeast Asian
Each box is thoughtfully curated with culturally significant produce, accompanied by recipes and stories that connect food to culture, memory, and identity. Our 8-week CSA begins in June, with convenient weekly pick-up at the farmers market every Saturday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
When you purchase a CSA box, you’re doing more than bringing fresh food home—you’re supporting local, culturally appropriate farming and helping sustain RGI’s programs that empower refugee and immigrant communities through food, education, and storytelling.
