Subject: Amador Co-op Meeting and Food Boxes
Hello,
THE NEXT CO-OP ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING IS TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 AT 6:15 PM AT AMY TURNER’S RANCH IN AMADOR CITY. DIRECTIONS BELOW. PLEASE BRING A DISH OF LOCAL FOODS TO SHARE, PLUS A PLATE AND EATING UTENSILS.
Thank you for your interest in a local foods and products co-op. While we continue to work to organize the co-op, we have decided, as a first step, to create a produce subscription box. This step will help us determine the level of commitment in Amador County for purchasing local products, through the number of subscribers we are able to get. More importantly, the box will give consumers access to local products sooner, and keep up the momentum of interest we have seen so far.
The logistics of a subscription box are still being finalized, but we have determined that the box will cost $20 per week, with a pre-paid four-week minimum commitment.
The box will contain recipes to help the consumer get the most out of the produce.
Subscribers will pick up their box at a given place within a range of time; as of now we have chosen Tuesday as the pickup day.
That’s all there is to it! We will make every effort to ensure that the growers providing produce for the boxes use sustainable growing practices. In the future, subscribers may be able to have eggs, meat, honey, and other local products in their boxes for an additional fee.
Please reply to Michelle Grondin’s email, amadorcountyfarmersmarket@yahoo.com to subscribe to these boxes, or if you would like more information. In the meantime, I hope to continue to see you at the Farmers’ Markets!
Amy Turner’s place:
The Address is 14350 Old Highway 49, Amador City home phone 267-0284
From the by-pass Make the SHARP right turn back toward Amador City . We are the 1st driveway on the left. The sign says “Turner Ranch and Law Office of Michael McEnroe.
From Sutter Creek – go on through Amador City on 49, 1 quarter mile past the last house – Driveway on the right.
Our driveway looks like a two lane paved road, when it rounds the corner it becomes 1 lane.
Lots of parking at the top of the hill.
We also have a pool if anyone wants to come earlier or stay later and jump in.. We have lots of chairs and tables.
