The Orange Shop's Citrus Subscription Plan Agricultural Subscriptions are the most rapidly-growing segment of American agriculture. Usually, these are arrangements between a local farmer and people who live nearby. Subscribers sign up for a share of fruits, vegetables, or even beef and chicken that the farmer raises during the season. By paying in advance, they help underwrite the growing costs, and assure the farmer of a market for the products. The subscribers then pick up their shares at the farm or the local farmers market on a scheduled day. It's really catching on around the country -- over 2,500 small farmers are offering subscriptions at the last count -- because it's a great way to enjoy the freshest, high-quality food at a reasonable price. We're introducing a new "mail-order" subscription program. Since our customers live all around the country, it just seems natural to introduce a subscription plan with fruit shipped to your door. It's simple - just choose the months you'd like to receive fruit, and we'll ship it to you. You'll receive the varieties that are the best tasting at the time, and will be the same quality as our gift fruit. You can choose the type of fruit -- oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, or any two. The fruit will be shipped in a 1/2 bushel box, which holds about 20 lbs of fruit - perfect for a month's supply. They're plain brown boxes, and we won't have as much cost to take the orders, so we're able to offer gift-quality, mail-order fruit at local prices! Summer is the best time to reserve your fruit for upcoming season. The only way to get a full season is to order by early October. Of course, you can order a subscription for friends and family, too, which will be a great surprise for the holiday season. Just choose the months above, fill in the shipping info, and that's all there is to it! We're excited about this new program, and hope you'll like it, too. |
