Co-Op Information

Pinecone Perennials
Co-Op information

  • We will be offering two basket sizes
            1.  $18 medium
            2. $ 23 large
  • We will be asking for you to purchase 2 of the baskets at our cost (each) $4.50 medium and $5.00 large
  • We will be rotating the baskets each week….you bring us the empty one and you pick up the filled one…..we will fill the empty one the next week and so on….
  • We will be collecting 50% as you sign up for 10 weeks May through July.  There are 12 weeks and we presume folks will need to pass on a couple of weeks throughout the season, thus the 10 vs the 12.  If you do not have a conflict and would like all 12 weeks that will be fine as well, we will collect accordingly.
               $180 / $90 for medium    $216 / $108 (12 weeks)
              $ 230 / $115 for large      $276 / $138 (12 weeks)
  • the remaining 50% will be due the first week of May on the first pick up day, TBD
  • We will start Session 2, August 1st, and do the same payment schedule.  First payment due the week of June 15th, balance due first pick up in August
  • We have asked for volunteers to come sort the vegetables and herbs on Friday mornings 10-12.  This is not obligatory, it would just make it more efficient and create that community feel we are going for.....if we have enough folks then we can split up the weeks....
  • Pick up will be Friday by noon and we close at 6 on Fridays. Of course the sooner you pick them up and get them home the fresher they will be....Saturday pick up is always available, we are working on finding and buying a walk-in cooler....anyone out there have one? :)

We are already taking sign ups. The basket money and the 50% comes to $99 for the medium basket and $125 for the large.
We have the baskets here if you want to take a look.....
