Member Agreement
Little Farm Fresh Agreement
As a member of the Little Farm Fresh Family you share in all the benefits involved in growing vegetables in an organic method. You receive the freshest, healthiest produce available. You also share in the risks involved in farming the organic way. Mother Nature may have other plans than the ones we strive our best for and they are sometimes unavoidable. As a partner in our farm it is important to understand you are committed to accepting both the benefits and risks involved in our ecological approach to farming.
Our boxes will include the produce that is in season and be available for 18 weeks from mid-June to mid- October. This means not all vegetables will be available at all times. Later in the season your baskets will be overflowing with options, and be less abundant earlier in the season. Please keep this in mind as your early baskets may not completely eliminate your produce grocery trips.
Keeping in Touch
Please look for our weekly updates in your mailboxes so you can stay in the loop with all the exciting things happening on the farm. We love to keep you involved in the growing process and make sure you are up to date with any other important information regarding your weekly boxes.
Packaging, Delivery and Pickup
Delivery: We make deliveries to the following towns: Markdale, Flesherton, Beaver Valley, Blue Mountain, Thornbury, Meaford, Clarksburg and everywhere in between.
​
*Please contact us at littlefarmfreshinfo@gmail.com if you are unsure if your location qualifies for delivery
​
Pickup: Pickup is also available and can be made at our farm located at 076447 11th Line, Markdale, ON, N0C1H0
​
Delivery and Pickup days and times will be shared in early Spring 2024.
​
You do NOT need to be home to accept the delivery. We can leave the produce for you at your door or the designated drop off spot at your home. We want you to have the freshest produce possible so please make note of your delivery days so your produce is not out in the elements for too long. Leaving a cooler with an ice pack is suggested if the vegetables will be left out for long periods of time.
​
The produce will arrive in a reusable grocery bag. Please have the empty bag from the previous delivery ready to be picked up on your delivery day.
Choosing your produce
To choose your weekly vegetables, please log into the member section of the web page and select your produce for the week. You will be asked to pick your vegetables a few days before delivery. This will give us enough time to harvest, clean, and package your delivery for the freshest produce. If you forget to login to choose your produce (which happens with any busy lifestyle) we will choose the most popular items for you.
Refunds, Cancellations, or Missed Weeks
If you are away for a week and can not accept your produce bag you may cancel the delivery for the week for a maximum of 2 weeks. Please let the farm know at least 1 week in advance of your delivery day that you wish to cancel for the week. A refund for the week will be credited to you at the end of the season. If you do not contact the farm in time you will be charged for the week. If you are away for more than 2 weeks you may donate your bag to the local food bank or gift it to a friend who lives within our delivery areas.
​
If you need to cancel your CSA share for any reason throughout the season, or are unhappy with a delivery, please contact us directly. We always strive to do our best and all feedback is beneficial. Little Farm Fresh reserves the right to cancel your CSA share at any time during the season if we feel you are not a good fit for our farm's mission.
Payment Options
E-transfers are our preferred method of payment. Cheques are also accepted. Payment for the CSA share can be made in full at time of sign-up or in 2 payments. Half at sign-up and the other half by May 1st. The early payments help our farm to offset some of the costs that occur in early spring before the growing season begins.
A Note of Thanks
Lastly, we want to thank you for supporting our Little Farm and family. We are excited to have you along with us on our journey. We have big plans for Little Farm Fresh and are happy you are along for the ride. We can’t wait to meet you!
