CSA Terms and Conditions: Please read thoroughly as your purchase of a CSA means you agree with these terms.
(boring and long, but hey we gotta talk about it)
Communication: Communication is important! Rules are rules but Paradise Produce Farm can sometimes be flexible. If you
need something or have an issue, you will contact us to work things out before anything else.
You acknowledge that we communicate to our CSA customers about changes, dates, reminder etc via email. We will be in contact several times via email before your CSA starts. If you have not heard from us by 1 week before your CSA, please check your spam and/or contact us. Rarely, such as in the case of incidental weather, we will send out text alerts so please sure we have a good number for you.
When Does it Start?:
The 2022 12 South Box CSA has 19 weeks of pick ups beginning May 17th, 4 to 7p. This CSA skips the entire month of August and resumes again the first week of Sept.
We will send a confirmation email the week before CSAs start to remind you to begin picking up your share. In the occasional un-anticipated case of circumstances beyond our control (such as a long harsh winter) delaying crops, the CSAs may begin later than the dates stated. We will do our best to be timely and will always be in communication about any date changes.
Missing a Week:
We suggest having a friend pick up for you if you cannot make it. We cannot change the day or adjust the time for pick up due to the nature of fresh produce and farm work. Shares that are not picked up will be donated to charity or put to good use. You can always notify 24hrs ahead of time us if you don't need a share that week, but there are no refunds/make ups for a missed week. In the rare incident of circumstances beyond our control blocking the majority of people from the market (such as dangerous weather or the main roads being closed), we will provide an alternative pick up date via email or text message.
Oh no, I forgot it was pick up day!
It happens, life is crazy these days. We do have a one time Oops policy for an occasion like this. If it is within 24 hours of pick up, just email or text us and you can pick up your share at the farm in Pleasant View or at the Franklin Farmers Market on Saturday if possible. Please be aware that this is just a one time courtesy. It just gets to be too much if we rearrange and repick orders for 30 people repeatedly. Thank you!
Produce: By becoming a CSA member, you understand that you are assuming some risk of farming. You understand
that Paradise Produce will do EVERYTHING in their ability to have successful harvests, but there are
a multitude of reasons that crops can fail. (this is our acts of God clause.) There is not a 100%
guarantee of availability of produce. If we get hit by a tornado, God forbid, we wouldn't be able to fulfill shares. Memberships are non-refundable. This is the nature of CSA memberships. Thank you for supporting the direct food chain!
Why Can't We Do Refunds?:
When you purchase a CSA you are not just buying produce, you are supporting the small family farm system. You make chemical-free, sustainable farming possible. Each penny goes to support our farm and family and in turn is converted to sweat, dirt, and occasionally tears. Then, in our turn, we can support your family with beautiful natural produce. By purchasing a share you are also claiming a spot in our CSA which somebody else wanted. The payment is a nonrefundable security deposit to ensure membership goes to those who really want it. Paying ahead of time for your produce also helps us know how much seed to buy and provides the money to do so.
Paradise Produce has the rights to amend agreement terms and policies and any changes will be communicated to members in a timely manner.
By purchasing this CSA share you are agreeing to these terms and conditions. If you have any questions about them please contact us before purchasing.
