The brochure for the 2008 CSA can be downloaded here at this link. The brochure describes the CSA program in detail as well as providing the sign-up form for the 2008 season. If you have any questions about it please email us. (found in CONTACT page)
Here’s an excerpt from our spring newsletter explaining the changes in the CSA:
You’ll still pay in advance for your share giving the farm working capital for the spring but what’s different is that you’ll receive Blue Fox Bucks to be used at any of the Farmer’s Markets we attend. Because you pay in advance for the produce you’ll be receiving a 10-15 percent discount depending on how many “bucks” you buy.
If you pay $90, you’ll receive $100 in Bucks. (2 cards)
If you pay $220, you’ll receive $250 in Bucks. (5 cards)
If you pay $425, you’ll receive $500 in Buck. (10 cards)The other great thing is you don’t have to wait for the the CSA season to start. It starts when we start market- which will probably be around the first week of April. We’ll have a blog post and I’ll email everyone the week before we begin markets again. Once we’re there just stop by, find the veggies you’ve been hunting for, and hand over your card. We’ll mark off the amount you’ve spent and your remaining balance. If you use your cards up, as long as we still have some available for the season, you can sign up for more. If not, you can always shop with us at the normal market price. This first year is going to be a real experiment for us. If this system works well, we’ll try to continue expanding the amount of memberships/cards we have available each season but for now we’re limiting it to the equivalent of 30 shares.
