Cisa - Community Involved in Sustaining Agriculture Inc

A nationally recognized organization working in western Massachusetts for almost 25 years, CISA works to make local food more abundant, accessible, and appreciated!

Through our Be a Local Hero, Buy Locally Grown® campaign, we spread the word of the importance of buying local and supporting local farms. 

CISA offers one-to-one business assistance and conducts over a dozen technical workshops each year, available to the hundreds of local farms in the Pioneer Valley.  

In collaboration with community organizations, we work to increase local food accessibility, and we maintain our Emergency Farm Fund which offers zero interest loans to farms when severe weather affects local crops. 

Your contributions help ensure that local agriculture, beautiful farmland, and the local food economy thrive in the Valley for years to come.
