Community Support Agriculture (CSA) Terms

This is a template for Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) terms and conditions. You can use these terms as a contract or on your website for when folks sign up for your CSA for your farm. These terms help clarify your sign up policy, cancellation, pick up or delivery terms, etc. This makes it so you can focus on growing your crops and not on legal or customer relation headaches!

 

To use these terms you can put them clearly on your CSA sign up page on your website, on a form you have customers sign when signing up, on a separate page customers must check they agree to before signing up on your website, or as a physical contract. 

 

-Introductory page with key considerations and more information how to use the template most effectively

 

-Template with comment boxes that explain each of the terms included such as your CSA options, cancellation policy, how you handle defects, payment terms, rules related to changes, pick up or delivery options, etc.
