The demand for locally grown organic produce in urban areas reveals concerns for local, small scale organic agriculture, farmland preservation, and open space (Jarosz 2000) and can fuel the already started transformation of the food system in Hungary. All studied CSA operations have growing numbers of customers or members, and since the demand for locally produced food is new and anticipated to increase, as more sustainable consumption routines emerge, expansion of the CSA sector seems likely in the country. Although the Hungarian CSA sector is minor in size it proves to be a notable agency to popularize alternative food networks. Our results confirmed that CSA can be identified as a successful rural business strategy for innovative organic farmers and has transformative potential for food-system localization, providing decent livelihood, good care of natural resources and strengthening social cohesion within the rural-urban interfaces.
