Have you bought your 2010 RCFM Membership? At just $10, your membership is one of the ways you can contribute to RCFM and help us to continue to bring you fresh, local foods and a fun community place from June till October. We thank you if you did! If you’d like to purchase one, you can at any RCFM function or event. Membership allows you to vote at our AGM and to help shape our market to be what you want to see. It’s a crucial way to stay connected.
But did you know it also gives you access to discounts and special promotions? It’s true! Showing your membership card at the RCFM booth at any market date or function will give you a one-time 50% discount on booth merchandise such as our recycled cotton made in Canada market shopping totes.
Even better, being a member also gets you access to special prices at our Member Appreciation Days, held at least twice throughout the season. And in 2010, June 17th is our first Member Appreciation Day. Members can enter to win a special door prize as well as receive discounts at participating vendors. Vendors offering a Member Discount will display a sign to let you know. We’ll post a list of specials soon.
