It;s slightly less surprising here since you rarely see anything but a white face...but it was an interesting tick in Talladega and Tampa Bay.
On the one hand we might make comments about wealth and affluence in the general, and that might explain why CSA's are predominantly white..but on the other hand, it might be behavioral and social. They're seen as a white persons thing. A white liberal thing, even more specifically. A white liberal suburban thing...narrowing it down. A white liberal suburban thing that your mom does to brag to her fellow empty nesters come the book club meeting...thing.
Which is a shame, but we're working on changing the reality of the model and peoples perceptions. I suppose I could pull up my files and rattle off exactly what percentage of respondents are minorities, there have been high profile success stories in urban reclamation projects...but they're the exception, not the norm.
For now, for me at least, we're extending the deadline for payment (we like to have em signed up by taxtime, and paid up before final frost)and increasing our number of work shares. Hopefully this allows people who are planning to have less money this year to either squre it away in their minds..or, if they just can't..trade a little bit of their time wandering around in the hot ass sun with me (they're useless, btw...just really bad at picking and packing..and they spend 80% of the time airing their political grievances at me..it is a movement, after all - yet another service I provide).
That, however..means that I will be purchasing less labor. See how it all trickles down real nice?
Quick question: What does CSA stand for?
