Thesis (M.S.)--San Jose State University, 1998.

This study examines the U.S. Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) shareholder model and the U.S. Socially Therapeutic Garden Project (STGP) model, with the objective of gauging the potential for combining the models to yield fiscally sustainable programs with optimal social and environmental benefits for participants, and the community. The work entailed a systematic analysis of the social, environmental, and economic structures of a sample of U.S. STGPs and CSAs, leading to recommendations for the design of a model CSA-supported STGP engaging youth at risk. Data acquisition and analysis involved a self report survey, personal interviews, and observation. Though typically understaffed, STGP survey respondents generally believed their projects to be achieving therapeutic success and fiscal sustainability. The CSA analysis found that projects demonstrated positive social and environmental features, but suffer from high shareholder turnover rates. It was therefore advised that STGPs not adopt the CSA model strictly to improve unstable economic conditions.
