Check out this farm share opportunity with Midlothian Valley Farm.
Hello Everyone;
Growing season rapidly approaching. Bedding plants growing under grow lights inside for now.
Midlothian Valley Farm will be in it's 17th year of growing, organic, sustainable, nutritional vegetables and fruits.
We face the challenge of expenses before any income can be earned. For this reason we offer a Farm Membership Program. We need your help and support.
Farm Membership is a weekly pick up at our farm market at 91 Midlothian Rd., Burk's Falls.
We are open on Saturday and Sunday and/or by appointment. Hours can vary so please follow our face book page.
Farm membership starts at $400.00.
We accept cash, credit card or e-transfer as payment.
You will choose what is available at the market.
An email is sent out weekly on Thursday informing you what is available.
I will be keeping a ledger with your name and record the final total at pick up.
I will let you know once you have fully utilized your farm membership.

I base the lists on last year's production. It all depends on weather, but I do believe another dry, hot year is predicted which is preferred over cool and wet.
The membership period would be from Late April to November.
