Robyn Van En : ウィキペディア英語版 | Robyn Van En Robyn Van En (1948 - January, 1997) was an American organic farmer and pioneer of the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) movement. ==Community Supported Agriculture== Robyn Van En was one of the originators of Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), a business model that helps small, diverse organic farms cope with the expenses of organic farming methods by selling "shares" of the harvest to CSA members before the farming seasons begins. This prevents the farmer from needing to borrow money to cover costs at the beginning of the season, and promotes community support for the farmer, as CSA members share in the risk of farming by paying up front and receiving farm produce throughout the season. Van En started the first CSA in the United States on her Indian Line Farm in Massachusetts. Later, she helped create more than 200 other CSA farms as she travelled across the United States, proselytizing fresh, local, organic produce.〔Business Hero: Robyn Van En. (My Hero ) July 21, 2002. Accessed March 1, 2009〕 She also travelled abroad to Russia, Canada, South America, Africa, New Zealand, Russia, and Hungary, leading to more than 1,200 active CSAs.〔(Robyn Van En Biography.
