When we first began offering market shares at our seasonal farmers markets over a decade ago, we were only selling our own produce and, therefore, had the margin available to offer discounts of 20% or more to our customers while still covering our business expenses. As our retail operations have expanded to offer many items besides our own produce, we are operating on much tighter margins. Financial analysis of the medium and large market share sizes we were offering has revealed that they were eroding profits to an unsustainable level. In other words, Atlas Farm has been losing money through medium and large market shares, and we needed to change our pricing in order to stay in business. Please know that we remain committed to building community through the Market Share Program, and to honoring our loyal customers with weekly specials, farm events, and a 10% discount for all members. Thank you for understanding the need for this change, and for continuing to support our farm!
In the spirit of a CSA, the Atlas Farm Market Share Program strengthens the relationship between our farm and our farm store and farmers market customers. You support our farm operations by paying up-front for a bounty of certified organic produce and other regional farm products. We offer a 10% discount at sign-up — and a flexible farm share in the form of a swipe card, which can be used to purchase what you need, when you need it.
Do you want to use your $110 card to purchase 10 weeks of fresh vegetables from the farmers market? How about 100 pounds of canning tomatoes in August? Or 47 cups of hot coffee from the Farm Store? It’s totally up to you. The credit on your Market Share card will roll over from season to season, and you can renew at any time.
In addition to saving 10% at sign-up, members of the Market Share Program receive additional special discounts each week. We will also subscribe you to our e-newsletter — which features farm news, photos, and recipes — and invite you join us at the Farm Store and main farm for special events throughout the year.
You may purchase a gift card for any amount over $10, but to receive a Market Share discount at sign-up, you must purchase a $110 share (for $100).
You can sign up for the Market Share Program through our online store (accessible below by clicking "I agree to the market share policies").
