The Hazelhurst CSA Committee has agreed to propose that the project adopt the Somerset Rules Co-operative Community Supported Agriculture ([[Media:Somerset Rules CSA.pdf|PDF version]] &mdash; better for printing) at the next public meeting, with one amendment, deleting point 1.3 and replacing it with the following:

The objects of the cooperative shall be community supported agriculture which aims to grow and distribute organic, healthy, affordable food for the benefit of the community using ecological and cooperative principles and renewable energy and through this contribute to a more resilient and inclusive food system for Sheffield and surrounding area.
