CSA programs have various setups. Most of the ones I've found out here will specify some drop-off locations. Once a week, you go to your specified drop-off point within a certain window (for example, Wednesdays 3-7pm) and pick up a box of assorted vegetables. Then you go home and cram it all into your fridge so you can look up what mizuna and kohlrabi are and what you're supposed to do with it. If it's the height of the harvest season, you then take tomatoes and zucchini in to work and beg your co-workers to take some. Some of them make you go out to the farm to pick up your veggies and some will deliver to your home.
