Rolling Prairie Acres -2016 CSA
Contract – Sigourney
708 Ringgold St. Sigourney, IA 52591
I
understand that Rolling Prairie Acres Farm (RPA) will do the best that they can
to grow an abundance of produce for 24 weeks
in 2016. I realize that their number
one job is to raise their three children.
Growing my food by sustainable means is very important to the family and
I can be assured that only OMRI
(Organic) approved products will be used in growing my fruits &
veggies. Also, I trust that they are
spending plenty of time and love tending my food.
I am
aware that Rolling Prairie Acres Farm cannot always supply all of my families
fresh food needs on every given week and that I may need to purchase food from
other sources at times. Also, there may
be times when there may be a few “extras” available from RPA. (Berries,
Tomatoes, Etc.). These will be offered
on a first come, first served basis to all patrons. I understand that this CSA experience is a
very simple “no frills” approach to local eating. I understand that I am
entitled to a share of items produced. I
may not “trade” for items that I would rather have. I will either take it or
leave it. This is not an order service. I am happy to help keep this family farming!
I am
responsible for bringing back my CLEAN containers and boxes to keep my costs
low. If I need to miss a pick
up, I will find and train a surrogate or simply forfeit my week. I agree to all of the following and have paid
my $25 deposit to hold my/ our
share. If you want to split a share with another party, it will be your
responsibility to split the share on pickup day. We only package the ½ and full
shares.

I have

produce that I anticipate and will be receiving. I understand that there may be unforeseen
events ahead that may prevent all crops to be produced in the desired quality

knowing that Rolling Prairie Acres will be doing their very best to grow for
me.
