Pricing & Payment options
How IT works
We offer a wide variety of payment methods along a sliding scale*. The scale is intended to be a map, inviting each of us to take inventory of our financial resources and privileges. It is a way to support economic justice and food equity on a local level.
*Thank you to Underground Alchemy, Soul Fire Farm, Radherb, Third Root, and the Kula Center for their inspiration, dedication and work with developing sliding scale models.
