We've launched a project on Kickstarter.com. If you aren't familiar with this cool website, check it out here. We were invited to post a project last year and did, but I didn't really promote it myself. This time I am tweeting daily and working a bit to get the word out. Our project is basically the beginnings of a CSA online. CSA is Community Supported Agriculture - in which folks can buy a "share" of the crops from a farm in advance. Obviously in our case the "crops" are our flowers. In most CSA's, you don't really get a discount for pre-buying, you are just guaranteed your share of goodies from the farm. In ours, we are actually giving our farm supporters a bit of a discount. Plus, you can pledge as little as $5, you don't have to buy a whole seasonal share.
Here's how it works...Check out the link above to read about our project. Choose your pledge amount and pledge through Kickstarter. Your pledge is just that - a pledge. You don't pay anything unless we meet our goal of $2000 in pledges. (So after you pledge, email everyone you know and tell them to do the same, because, of course, this means you don't get anything if we don't meet our goal.) When our project time is up and if we meet our goal and receive enough pledges, we contact you to get you your flower share! Cool, huh?
