CSA Terms and Conditions: Please read thoroughly and sign with your purchase.
(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 the week before your csa starts, 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.
We will send a confirmation email the week before CSAs start to remind you to begin picking up your share. In the 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. Just let us know if you send a substitute. 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 between 3 and 6:00pm on Thursdays for the Farm CSA and 4 and 7p on Mondays for the Holiday Box CSA 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 farm (such as dangerous weather or the main roads being closed), we will provide an alternative pick up date.
Payments:
If you have chosen a payment plan, your share spot will be reserved but not be finalized until your last payment due April 1st. Failure to make final payments by April 1st will forfeit your spot.
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.
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.
Thank you so much for supporting Paradise Produce Farm and our family!
You make chemical free, sustainable farming possible. We love growing for you!
