Conditions of Use

Thank you for your interest in supporting local agriculture in the Plymouth, MA area. The organizers of the Plymouth Local Foods project are excited to connect area farmers, growers, bakers and the like with local food buyers. Please note the following guidelines established by Plymouth Local Foods:

· All sales are final.

· Plymouth Local Foods does not allow any substitutions or returns.

· Orders made online cannot be cancelled.

· Each farmer is solely responsible for ensuring that the products you purchase are delivered to the Market that Thursday afternoon.

· Each Buyer is responsible to have their food picked up by 6:30 each Thursday and understand it will be offered to a local food pantry if it is not.

These policies put all of the responsibility for providing quality products to our community on the shoulders of our food-makers. We realize that the quality of product and presentation will vary amongst our growers. We encourage you to give different farmers a try and to get to know them by reading their Bio on this website or visiting them at the Farmers’ Market (if they participate). If you feel the food or agricultural products you have purchased do not meet your standards, please try another farmer and offer your feedback in an evaluation.

Due to the community nature of this project, buyers need to be tolerant - keeping in mind that food grown locally without pesticides may not appear "perfect." Yet, it is our belief that dissatisfied buyers can and will express their discontent with any products by not purchasing from that farmer again. Likewise, farmers that earn trust by providing products of exceptional quality will retain the loyalty of their customers.

Plymouth Local Foods is designed to serve as a means for connecting local food makers and buyers.

The organizers of Plymouth Local Foods look forward to receiving your feedback on the project. Buyer evaluations will help us to improve the design and efficiency of the project for the future.

Thank you.
