General Conditions for the CSA Harvest Box
4. Prices & Billing
- The standard price is €109 per month for 46 deliveries per year.
- Billing is done monthly at the time of the first order or on the 15th of a current month (via Stripe) or monthly (via PlantAge via Sepa). It is intended that customers who receive vegetables on a long-term basis will be billed directly via PlantAge eG Sepa in order to save transaction costs.
- If the first delivery begins in the middle of the month and the month is already fully charged at €109 (incl. VAT), then the last partial month is not billed. Ultimately, you always receive 46 deliveries of vegetable boxes for a total of 12 x €109.
5. Duration & Termination
- The CSA Harvest Box contract has a term of one year, which is automatically extended by another year unless terminated one month before the end of the term via form or in text form by e-mail to info@plantage.farm. The term begins on the day of the first delivery.
- With the first delivery, a 14-day right of withdrawal begins.
6. Number of Deliveries
- Customers receive a harvest box in 46 out of 50 delivery weeks per year.
- Joker (pause box): Customers can pause 4 out of 50 deliveries within 12 months (“jokers”) by notifying us via form by Sunday 11:59 p.m. before delivery. The jokers apply to the year of the CSA Harvest Box contract and not to the calendar year. A harvest year always begins on the first day of the month in which the first box is delivered. If no jokers are used, the 4 extra delivered vegetable boxes will be charged (¼ of the respective monthly price per box, i.e. €22.25 at €89, €24.75 at €99, €27.25 at €109, €29.75 at €119, €32.25 at €129). The number of jokers can be viewed via an access link provided by e-mail at the start.
- Multiple deliveries may be combined into one delivery by PlantAge eG for economic reasons.
- No harvest is delivered in the two weeks around Christmas and New Year.
7. Delivery & Shipping
- Delivery is made either free of charge to distribution points or for a fee via shipping service provider, depending on customer preference.
- Option: Distribution point: Delivery of the harvest boxes is made to distribution points where customers pick up their harvest box. Customers can choose one of the specified distribution points and change it if capacity is available. There is no entitlement to a specific distribution point. If cooperation with a distribution point ends, customers must collect the harvest box at another distribution point.
- Option: paid shipping service provider: The weekly costs for a weekly vegetable box are €9.50 per delivery per week. These are costs we pass on 1:1.
8. Membership in the Cooperative PlantAge eG
- Those who pay a standard price of €109 per month do not need to become members of the cooperative.
- By concluding the CSA Harvest Box contract at a solidarity price of €89 or €99, you agree to become a cooperative member of PlantAge eG. Membership is obtained through confirmation of the membership application. The CSA Harvest Box contract is valid even without cooperative membership until that point.
- The CSA Harvest Box contract can be concluded simultaneously (at the latest with the fourth delivery) with cooperative membership. Exceptions require board approval.
9. Transfer of the CSA Harvest Box Contract
The CSA Harvest Box contract can be transferred to third parties, or harvest shares increased or decreased, with the consent of PlantAge eG. Send us an e-mail to info@plantage.farm for this. After receiving our confirmation e-mail, it may take up to fourteen days for the change to take effect.
10. Solidarity Prices
- Eligibility for the reduced solidarity price (€89 / €99) is limited to cooperative members, unless special promotions apply.
- The solidarity price can only be requested at the time of contract conclusion or with one month’s notice before the end of a CSA Harvest Box contract for the following year.
- Upon contract renewal: The change of the standard price becomes valid only after confirmation from PlantAge by e-mail and may take about 14 days. For applications confirmed by us by the end of a month, the agreed harvest contribution will be debited from the stored account by direct debit on the 15th of the following month.
- A reduced solidarity price (€89 / €99) can only be granted if sufficient solidarity contributions from other members are available. Applicants are selected in chronological order of their registration. It may be the case that the available quota of reduced harvest contributions is already allocated. In this case, you register with this contract for the waiting list.
- The solidarity price can be canceled at any time with three months’ notice via this form. This means that the regular harvest contribution will be paid again. This does not replace the termination of the 12-month CSA Harvest Box contract.
- If the CSA Harvest Box contract is terminated, this contract is also automatically terminated.
- The cooperative may terminate the reduced solidarity price contract (€89 / €99) with three months’ notice if there are no longer sufficient solidarity contributions from other members. This means that the base price must be paid again.
- Prices are paid for an entire month; no pro rata calculation is made if delivery starts mid-month.
- The contractual principles of the CSA Harvest Box contract apply, except for those affected by the solidarity price.
