Holiday Happy Hour and Shopping Day
Thursday, December 27th, 4 to 7p.m.
Maybe you misjudged how long the eggs were going to last with all that family in town. Maybe all that family in town is making you want to escape for a spell. Maybe you just miss us and can't bear the thought of an entire extra week without seeing us. Or maybe you just want a free drink and nibbles. We judge you not...unless you don't join us for a little holiday cheer!
Come on in to the Mothership for a bit of shopping while you sip a beer or glass of wine, presecco or apple cider. We'll have some snacks to enjoy and of course plenty of stimulating, riveting conversation to entertain you. Don't need to get anything? We'd still love to see you, so please join us.
You can bring a friend or family member along to show them Fair Shares and shop. If your guest signs up for a trial, you'll get a $5 credit at the end of their two weeks--if they decide to join, we'll give you an additional $15! This offer is good for the month of January as well, so if you recommend a friend or bring them along to your pickup, you'll get a $5 to $20 thank you if they do a trial and/or join!
Cheers!

Testimonials
Yellow Dog Farms is a successful small farm in a large part due to Sara and Jamie at Fair Shares CCSA. They were willing to take a chance on a budding (pun intended) first generation Farmer. We were not a supplier to Fair Shares the very first year, but have been ever since and hopefully far into our shared futures.
I am proud to be a supplier and you should be proud to be a member of Fair Shares CCSA where we are all involved in growing and eating better quality, healthy food and supporting small, local businesses and small scale agriculture in Missouri and Illinois.
