Veg Membership

Vegetables - Membership

Being a Member of Canalside Community Food does not necessarily mean you have to take up a Veg share. However, if you do decide to take up a Veg share, you will also need to become a Member.

This Membership entitles you to come along to any of our work days, plus any other farm open days or social events the project holds. We have 2 work days a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, between 10am and 1pm, when you can come along and get your hands in the earth and help the growers with the hard task of growing all the food. These days also serve as opportunites for Veg share members to come along and do some of their work share. We will undoubtedly have extra work days throughout the year, according to the amount of extra help needed during heavy harvesting or weeding periods!

We are also looking to hold at least 8 social events throughout the year, which will be loosely based around different seasonal celebrations, such as the Summer and Winter solstices, May Day/Beltane, Harvest Festival/Lammas etc. Please visit our Events page for the latest information on upcoming social and work days.

Cost of Membership (per household) £2/£1* per month or £24/12* per year

The cost of Membership goes towards paying for administration, insurance, and other organisational costs involved in having members of the public on the land and putting on social events. It is also a way for people to show their support for the project and gives us some security to be able to plan ahead.

Membership can be paid for in 2 different ways:

Annual amount can be paid up front by cheque (this is preferable to us)
A monthly Standing Order can be set up (due to high bank charges, we regret that this option is only open to those people also setting up a monthly SO for a vegetable share subscription)

If you would like to become a Member of Canalside Community Food Ltd, please download and complete a Membership Form and return it to Caz Ingall. If you are setting up a Standing Order, please download a form and return it to your bank.
