Proprietors of Sleeping Frog Farm work a row of greens destined for Tucson via the Community Supported Agriculture program.

AZPM visits Cochise County's Sleeping Frog Farms, where four young farmers are working to provide fresh produce for communities in Southern Arizona.

Among other projects, they operate a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) group with pick-up at St. Phillips Market in Tucson.

What a beautiful piece! Gives a person like me, who has never farmed, a real feel for the work and the rewards. Here's to more and more acres of beautiful, healthy vegetables!
