SPECIAL BOX PROGRAM

Posted by Lloyd Craft Farms-- CSA and Fresh Produce.

If you live in BUFFALO or SHERIDAN, LANDER or RIVERTON, and would like to access and support Local and Fresh foods, and be a part of the MOVEMENT (some call it Farm to Fork)–then JOIN the Special Box Program!  BUT FIRST SEND A TEXT TO 307-431-1219 AND LET US KNOW–

Wyoming is our Community and we are Local for Wyoming! (Yeah?)  So….What is the Special Box Program?  It is an extension of our CSA.  (See CSA tab for information on what a CSA is, and what to expect in a SHARE.)

The CSA has lots to offer, but not everyone can get here to Worland every Thursday for their Share, SO we deliver!  (Check Delivery Schedule under the CSA tab)  The Special Box program gives you a chance to access garden fresh, locally grown foods, and to support the garden effort and your farmers.  (As a member of the CSA, which you are by extension,  you are always welcome to come  and partake in anything else going on in Worland.)  

A word on Farmer’s Markets:  Do not neglect your own local Farmer’s Markets.  They are important to your communities.  We provide another outlet for local foods.  We often grow things you cannot grow outside the Big Horn Basin because of the length of your seasons, shortage of growers or limitations on garden spaces…crops like melons and long season cauliflowers, fall celery…)

Here’s the Nuts and Bolts of the SPECIAL BOX PROGRAM–

*********************************************************************************

COST–$40 per Special Box , $25 Annual Membership fee.  

Normally you would PAY FOR THE SEASON up front….but the season has started!  Worry not, there is still season left and the garden seems to be producing to accept new members.

WEEKLY SPECIAL BOX–13 Weeks……………….$545

LEAP-FROG SPECIAL BOX–8 Weeks……………..$345

BOTH plans would be pro-rated as the 2023 season has started July 11th this year!

Text 307-431-1219 with Share frequency and a quote will be sent back.  ($40 per boxes for the month, $25 Membership Fee)

********************************************************************************

Once you have your quote, sign up under the Special Box Program

  1. Complete the Special Box Program Application under the Special Box Program Page–this is so we know who you are and how to reach you.  🙂
  2. Indicate a Weekly Box or a Leap-Frog (every other week)—
  3. Indicate your payment plan in comments:  Pay in Full, or pay Monthly starting with June for July (first payment includes your $25 CSA Membership, $40 Box cost)
  4. Hit SUBMIT and it will SEND—- I will send you a confirmation so you know we have it!

*********************************************************************************

PAYMENT IS SIMPLE:

  1. PayPal–Open the PayPal page from the horizontal menu and pay with your debit or credit card. Add interest fee.
  2. Check–Make checks payable to Lloyd Craft Farms, and mail to 1049 Washakie Ten, Worland, WY  82401. No fee of any kind.
  3. Cash–sorry, cash can only be received at Bee Healthy, 635 Big Horn Ave, Worland.

REMEMBER– At the start of the season, you can pay up front for the season (helps us with our garden costs and saves you money) or a Month ahead (helps you budget your money–$2.50 monthly fee applies).  You can do a Leap Frog or a Weekly.  If you do a Leap-Frog and want MORE, you have until August 15th to upgrade to a Weekly. (Check on the UPGRADE option under the CSA tab.)  Unpaid Boxes may not be delivered.

The FINAL step To COMPLETE THE SIGN UP PROCESS:  Go to our HOME page and sign up ‘to follow’ by entering your email address in the box at the right hand side–this is how we communicate when the garden is ready and share Pick Up information.  🙂

GET READY to ENJOY the plethora of veggies from our garden in the Big Horn Basin of beautiful Wyoming!  CSA starts in July and Special Box Program starts a week later, both run for 13 weeks.  Share sizes vary throughout the season but are freshly harvested and usually 8-10 items.  (We have been told we do a good job of filling the boxes up, and have a good variety for the week!)  

In a NUTSHELL:  Cost is $40 for each Special Box, and $25 to join the CSA.  Special Boxes will be dropped every other week (Leap-Frog), or Weekly.  ENJOY–EAT Good for GOOD health!!
