Sign-ups are now CLOSED for Winter 2013-14 Vegetable Shares

There are two kinds of Winter Vegetable Shares: 1. Golden Earthworm’s root vegetable share, and 2. Winter Sun Farms‘ frozen local vegetable share. The two shares complement each other well, so feel free to sign-up for both! In addition to veggies, you can also purchase a Cider Share and/or an Apple Share from Briermere Farms. We will continue to offer fish shares and CSA extras through the winter (details on those coming soon).

How to sign-up for Winter Vegetable Shares:

Online Sign-Up: The easiest way to sign-up for a Winter Share is via the web form link below and pay with PayPal. You can also sign up via web form then pay by sending a check to our P.O. box. 


OR

In-Person Sign-Up: There will be ONE in-person sign-up on November 7th, from 6-7pm, during regular CSA pickup. If you plan to sign up in-person, please know the details of the shares you are purchasing and *bring your checkbook.*

If you want a winter share, but can’t sign up online and can’t attend our in-person sign-up, please Contact Us ASAP to make other arrangements.

Note: All payments must be received by Monday, November 18^th

Read carefully: VOLUNTEERING
Everyone is required to sign-up for a volunteer shift. We’ve amended the Volunteer Agreement in hopes of curtailing ‘no-show’ volunteer incidents. Please read it carefully before signing off. For most folks, nothing will change, other than we need all Winter Share participants to have signed up for a shift by January 15th, 2014 (by then, 2 of the 5 deliveries will have already passed, so that gives you plenty of time!) Questions? Please Contact Us.
