Membership Agreement —

Welcome to our Private Membership Association (PMA). We are not a business, and you are not a customer. We are a private club that values community enrichment and real food, unadulterated by industrial practices. All members relinquish their ‘public’ status and understand that we are not a business, and you are not a customer. As members, we are all associating as humans (men and women), therefore trading goods and services within the membership are un-regulated by local, state, and federal regulations. By joining the PMA, you are doing so in your majority capacity, as a human that’s alive, and are not representing any entity, agency, or government in any capacity.

As a member, you agree to handle all concerns within the group, by contacting leadership to resolve concerns. If an agreement isn't met, both parties agree to utilize PMA approved mediation. No party shall involve the legal system, contact regulatory agencies, or discuss concerns with any entity or group outside of the membership.

To join, add the '1 Year Membership' to your cart and set up a login at checkout. We don't accept credit cards, so this one time, we ask that you send a Venmo payment to @AngelaLocalStorehouse, and write the name of the person who referred you in the notes. Once approved, you will be sent a Welcome Email, with a password to view the members only areas & begin reserving.

CANCELING RESERVATIONS: reservations CANNOT be canceled after Friday at 3 pm. Instead, please reach out to schedule an alternative pickup time.

TRADE TERMS: As a PMA, we agree to work outside the traditional business/customer system, and agree to trade goods and services amongst each other as friends and neighbors.

We prefer trades of Cash, but offer Vemno under $500 in special circumstances (new memberships and deliveries).

We also offer Gift Cards paid for in cash, and pre-approved trades & barters.

The dairy farm families, as the majority share holders and managers will retain all rights to make any and all decisions about buying, selling, medical treatment, feeding, etc... for the herd. They also retain all ownership of offspring of the herd. Local Storehouse, nor any dairy farmer is responsible for any positive or negative health claims resulting from you being a part of this herd share.
