Albany Area Community Supported Bakery "CSB"
Just thought I would pass this info on. I am a big supporter of CSAs and so I think this is a really cool idea - a bakery doing shares, and ingredients are local/organic/etc where they can. I would do it but I can't rely on getting to pickup the share, so I'm bummed, but I know some of you ladies might be interested. I'm curious to hear if any of you are familiar with the bakery or tried their products or if you think you'll sign up.
They don't have much info online, so you are supposed to e-mail them for info.

Here is a little bit from their e-mail too -

We know many people in the area are familiar with the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) business model (where one purchases a share of a farm in exchange for a season of fresh produce, beef, chicken, eggs, etc.), and using the same model, we'd like to bring the Capital Region its first Community Supported Bakery (CSB).
We are passionate about providing our community with the freshest, made-from-scratch artisan breads and baked goods. Joining our CSB means knowing your bakers, the ingredients we use, and the businesses we partner with. As a shareholder, you will:
The Winter Bread season will run from November 3rd, 2010 through April 27, 2011 (26 weeks). Shares begin at only $6.00 per week (payment for the full season due at sign-up). We are limited to 150 shares, and shares will be sold on a first come, first served basis. Attached to this e-mail, you'll find our order form and all the information you'll need to decide if you want to join us (may we suggest you print on both sides to save paper? It's 4 pages plus an ingredients list).
If you have questions or would like to sample our goods, we're at the Delmar Farmer's Market every Saturday (except Oct. 30) from 9am-1pm and we would love it if you stop by to meet in person. You can also contact us via e-mail or by phone. We appreciate all the enthusiasm we have received in response to this endeavor so far! We hope you'll pass on this message to others who may want to sign up. We look forward to your participation in our effort to bring the community sustainable bread and baked goods.
Your bakers,
