I offer a work option - if you work 12 hours, in three 4 hour shifts,
you receive a $50 rebate at the end of the season. One of my CSAs has
also had a work requirement of 12 hours/season and the value of the
labor was built into the price. With the work option, my expectations
of the quantity of work which will be done aren't really high. I look
at it more as an opportunity for people to get their hands dirty and
expose their kids and grand kids to market gardening or berry picking.
I don't expect the shareholders to provide a significant fraction of my
work hours. I wouldn't consider a working share like you mention unless I knew the person who wanted the arrangement well and I was confident that we could work well together. In short, I would consider the working shareholder as more of an employee than a customer. As far as valuing the working shareholder's time, depending upon my expectations of the value they would provide it would be at least minimum wage up to market rate for the labor they provide.
