One of our fiber CSA shareholders inspired the Chicken Sponsorship Program:
Here's how it works:
We buy a ready-to-lay pullet and feed her for a
year. You get a Sponsor Certificate (suitable for framing!) and a card
with ten punch spaces on it. I'll punch your card once for every dozen
eggs you get this next laying season. You get first priority when the
eggs start coming and the demand rises. You can name your chicken if
you like, but I plan for them all to look pretty much the same, for
reasons I'll be happy to explain to you, away from the children or the
tender-hearted.
Cost: $50 the first year. If you sponsor a chicken again in subsequent years, the cost will be $30.
Egg
lovers who don't necessarily want to sponsor a chicken can also buy an
"Egg Lovers" card and get ten dozen eggs for $35. Present your card for
a punch and get a dozen eggs.
Folks who purchase their eggs a dozen at a time will pay the usual $4/dozen.
