The closest most city folk ever get to a farm? Probably that drunken rendition of “Old McDonald” you vaguely remember belting out last Saturday night.

Get a little nearer to nature with the help of Angelic Organics, a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm in north-central Illinois. Sign up to become a shareholder, and you can enjoy the fruits — well, veggies — of the farm’s next seasonal harvest. You’ll receive a box of just-picked produce every week for 12 or 20 weeks; Angelic Organics will even truck your share of its crops down to a dozen Chicago locations for easy pick-up.

Don’t know your rutabaga from your komatsuna? No worry. Each 7- to 20-pound box includes a newsletter with cooking tips and recipes. Not only will you help support the farm and its commitment to a sustainable farm system, you’ll give your body delicious nutritious veggies.

Now that’s something to E-I-E-I-O about.
