Phil: I've always understood that CSAs are designed to "spread the risk" of
farming with the shareholders, so in my shareholder agreement I have a
statement to that effect -- that they understand that the harvest may vary
due to hail, drought, etc. This was my first year, so I don't know what I'd
do if I had VERY little to deliver each week.
I, too, am curious -- has anyone returned money? Had shareholders ask for
money back? Been so trashed by hail, etc that there was almost nothing to
deliver?
