What Is The Lighthouse Gardens Farm Club?
Many small business owners are familiar with the Pareto principle or 80/20 rule: 80% of your business comes from 20% of your customers. Our farm club is designed for those 20% of our customers and our goal is to enhance your customer experience for those that tend to spend $200 or more per year with our farm. You'll get a Lighthouse Gardens Farm Club card preloaded with $200 (or above if you choose) in addition to all of the member benefits listed below.
Why Join Our Farm Club?
- Organic Plants & Veggies! We've been growing plants for your kitchen garden since 2007 and certified organic vegetables for almost a decade. We have the largest selection of certified organic herb and veggie plants available locally! We manage our market garden using an organic, no-till, no-tractor, deep composted permanent bed system that focuses on the health, structure and biological activity of our soil, resulting in some of the most beautiful and delicious vegetables available in our region.
- Convenience Your Farm Club card is redeemable for anything we sell at our farm store and the Brighton Farmer's Market: herb, vegetable, annual, perennial, berry, fig, succulent and other plants, our house blended compost based potting soil and our certified organic vegetables.
- Value You already know that we grow the very best certified organic herb and veggie plants for your kitchen garden, the sweetest succulents and the tastiest organic veggies at very reasonable prices.
- Support the Local Economy By purchasing a Farm Club card from us, you are financially supporting our farm when we need it the most. Late Winter and early Spring are lean times for most farms and we are no exception. Your support allows us to pay our employees, heat our greenhouses and purchase seeds and supplies without having to borrow more from the bank, which keeps even more of your hard earned money in the local economy.
- Shareholder Benefits
*we will issue these as soon as our printer opens back up.
- Farm Club members will have exclusive access to rare varieties of our certified organic herb and veggie
plants in the spring.
- Free compost drop off! Farm Club members will be allowed to dump their veggie scraps at our farm anytime during our
regular hours of operation. Our veggies become your scraps, which become our soil, which become....you get the idea.
*out of an abundance of caution, we are going to suspend this service until further notice.
- Invitation to a member only farm tour. Get an exclusive look behind the scenes before we open the doors to the public
for the season. We will likely schedule this event for early to mid-April when our greenhouses are filled to the brim and
we're all itching to get into the garden. *unfortunately, we will have to cancel this event until we can safely gather.
- Access to our private Facebook group dedicated to our Farm Club members and our Salad Club CSA share holders.
Peruse exclusive content, recipes and gardening tips while sharing ideas with other members.
How Much Does This Cost?

The Nitty Gritty
When and how do I sign up? Farm Club cards must be purchased by April 1st. However, the earlier in the year you purchase your share, the greater the impact your support will have on our farm. We are more than happy to accept payment via credit card, but if you pay by cash or check an extra 3% of your hard earned money will continue to circulate in our local economy.
When can I start using my Farm Club card? We typically open our farm store for regular retail hours in early May but we are planning on opening up earlier in mid-April this year. We will notify customers via our social media as the time gets closer. Brighton Farmer's Market customers can use their card anytime during the Summer market season which runs from May 24th through November 22nd this year. *we will be implementing a preorder system for all custom orders including Farm Club member orders and have updated our online store to accommodate preorder veggie, plant and soil sales for pick up.
Have any questions? Feel free to give us a call, email us or connect with us on any of our social media accounts. We'll be more than happy to answer any questions that you have.
