One thing (of the many) I admire about Jolianne is that she curates the things she owns. Something must be functional and beautiful to earn a place in her home or she'd rather do without. That doesn't mean everything is perfect, far from it, it means that she is intentional about what she keeps, what she recycles into another use (ie: jeans cut up to be potholders), what she politely refuses and what she buys.
In-line with this, we thought long and hard about what YOU would find meaningful, practical and beautiful to give this holiday season from the farm. We also knew that our intention for the 2020 holiday season is to simplify and create wholeness with what we offer. So, without further ado, here is a preview of...
2020's Christmas Giving from the Farm🎄
#1 The Refilling Veggie Basket
(AKA the Summer Abundance CSA Basket Subscription)
What if you could give your loved one (and their family) food security: a basket that *magically refills with organic veggies fresh from the field every week all summer long? You can.
*okay, well this type of magic comes from your thoughtfulness, investment & our love and care to grow, wash, package & deliver!
Details:
Our Summer Abundance CSA Basket Subscription 2.0 gift is simple, flexible, and delicous.
Simple - It runs for 22 weeks from June 2 to Oct 31, 2021. Weekly basket pick up is at the on-site Farm Store. As a farm member your loved one will recieve 10% more veggies than if they would buying straight from the Farm Store.
Flexible - What if your loved one takes holidays? No problem, they simply will tell us how many weeks they’d like off and we’ll give them (or you) a gift card for the remainder of their summer share to spend as they (or you) please.
When your loved one picks up their basket at the Farm Store they have even more flexibility: they can trade out any veggie in their basket for a veggie they prefer. So, if they don’t like a certain vegetable, no problem, they can swap it for a different one.
