Working and Helping Shares

Working and Helping Shares for the 2015 season

Thank you for your interest in supporting Stone Coop Farm LLC through a Working or Helping Share. We have 4 options for 2015. We will only have a few of these shares available in 2015, so if you are interested, please let us know as soon as possible.

*PLEASE NOTE – All WORKING Shares require a face to face meeting before you will be allowed to purchase one. We rely heavily on the Working Shares. We need to make sure you understand our expectations and that it is a good fit for all of us.

The following 2 Working/Helping shares are for Market Share memberships. A Market Share allows you to purchase produce all season at any of our markets or online sales. Please see the website for more details about how the Market Shares are structured.

This is a 40  week commitment with a total of 100 hours of work time. It requires a $250 deposit that is refundable once you complete your time commitment. If you are not able to provide your time commitment, we will keep the deposit and could stop your market share balance.
