DEADLINE EXTENDED! (FOR NOW)
We would love for everyone to join the Central Brooklyn CSA, and even though we cannot make that happen, we are doing our best to make sure everyone who is interested at least has an opportunity.
Great news: due to the incredible response over the last week, we are extending the deadline to join the Central Brooklyn CSA! We are proud of the opportunity our CSA provides for members of our community to eat well for less, and want to make sure everyone that is interested in becoming a member has a chance to. Having said that, vegetable shares (standard memberships) and fruit and egg shares are going fast, so if you would like to become a member, we urge you to move quickly.
We have made a commitment to make at least 40% of our shares available to members making less than $35, 000, and we are keeping that commitment. However, in fairness to all potential members, we are accepting applications on a first come, first serve basis. (In other words, if you are planning on joining, you should know that the availability of shares is impacted by your income level.)
We would love for everyone to join the Central Brooklyn CSA, and even though we cannot make that happen, we are doing our best to make sure everyone who is interested at least has an opportunity.
If you are interested but have questions or financial concerns, please contact us (no need to panic!). If you sent in your deposit and membership agreement and want to make sure we received it, email us at CentralBrooklynCSA@gmail.com and we will get back to you right away.
CSA Sign-Up Deadline is April 30th!
This is a friendly reminder that the sign-up deadline for the Central Brooklyn CSA is Friday, 30 April 2010!
For all of the wonderful people we have met who have yet to submit their membership agreements and deposits, this is a friendly reminder that the “official” sign-up deadline for the Central Brooklyn CSA is Friday, 30 April 2010!
A breakdown of what it will cost you to join the CSA is available here. If you are interested in joining and need a few more days to round up your deposit, are wondering about the volunteer requirement, or have any other questions, you may e-mail us at CentralBrooklynCSA@gmail.com, or contact Maia by phone!
You can mail in your deposits and membership agreements to this address. (The minimum deposit is 10% unless you are paying with food stamps, in which case, it is $0!)
We have not finalized the deadline for fruit and egg shares, but you cannot sign-up for either of those unless you have signed up for a vegetable share!
Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
