2013 Season Sign Ups
Returning members, if you couldn’t make it to our Town Hall and Returning Member sign ups last week, don’t worry! You can sign up during Open Sign Ups on February 21st from 6-8pm at SCS. Please Contact Us if you have questions.
Veggie shares are SOLD OUT for the 2013 season but you can still buy fruit, herb or milk shares. Just download the contract and send with your check ASAP—DEADLINE is April 30th.
It’s time to prepare for Sunnyside CSA 2013 Sign Ups! Returning and new members, please join us on February 21st from 6-8pm at Sunnyside Community Services and sign up for the 2013 Summer/Autumn Season!
Please read about our 2013 Share Options. For the Summer/Autumn Season, we are offering vegetable, fruit, herb and dairy shares. Once you decide what you want, you can download the contract and bring it, along with your check made out to Sunnyside CSA, to the sign up. (You can also fill out a contract there, but things will move much quicker if you have it all ready.)
4. Please make sure to Join our Yahoo email group, which is how Sunnyside CSA sends important announcements.
Please Note these Important Details:
-> Depending on how many vegetable shares are left to sell, we may or may not have another one, so please come to this if you are interested in a vegetable or fruit share for 2013!
-> Because of a variety of logistical reasons, we can’t accept a contract without a check; if you do not bring a check to the sign up, we can’t save you a space. (We’ll take an exact cash amount if that’s all you have, but would rather not for security reasons.) Please be aware of all this!
-> Open Sign Ups will take place during one of our winter share pickup dates.
This page is for folks who are looking for a share partner for the 2013 Summer/Autumn CSA Season. If you’ve got a share but need a partner, or have no share but want to split one, leave a comment with your contact info!
Please READ the previous posts before writing your own, and contact the person! Otherwise, everyone is posting and no one is responding.
