Angelic Organics, located in Caledonia, Illinois, was a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm, one of the oldest, in the United States. The farm began growing produce in accordance with organic and biodynamic principles in 1990. Participating subscribers, known as shareholders, received a weekly 3/4 bushel box of fresh vegetables and herbs delivered to one of 40 Chicago area sites.{{cite book |last1=Franseschini |first1=Amy |last2=Tuckey |first2=Daniel |title=Farm Together Now |date=17 September 2013 |publisher=Chronicle Books |isbn=978-1-4521-3402-4 |page=60 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Cc-vAAAAQBAJ&pg=PA60 |access-date=11 November 2021 |language=en}}{{cite book |last1=Hayes |first1=Joanne |last2=Stein |first2=Lori |title=Recipes from America's Small Farms: Fresh Ideas for the Season's Bounty: A Cookbook |date=12 March 2009 |publisher=Random House Publishing Group |isbn=978-0-307-54384-4 |page=126 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sM68qb6gHxwC&pg=PA126 |access-date=11 November 2021 |language=en}}{{cite book |last1=MacLachlan |first1=Janine |title=Farmers' Markets of the Heartland |date=30 May 2012 |publisher=University of Illinois Press |isbn=978-0-252-09419-4 |page=138 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_ZZdAAAAQBAJ&dq="Caledonia,+Illinois"&pg=PA138 |access-date=11 November 2021 |language=en}}{{cite book |last1=Reid |first1=Debra A. |title=Interpreting Agriculture at Museums and Historic Sites |date=23 January 2017 |publisher=Rowman & Littlefield |isbn=978-1-4422-3012-5 |page=xiv |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=qZjbDQAAQBAJ&dq="Caledonia,+Illinois"&pg=PR14 |access-date=11 November 2021 |language=ar}}{{cite book |last1=Schut |first1=Michael |title=Food & Faith: Justice, Joy, and Daily Bread |date=May 2010 |publisher=Church Publishing, Inc. |isbn=978-0-8192-2411-8 |page=104 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=n2mYSGY1618C&pg=PA104 |access-date=11 November 2021 |language=en}}
