How It Works

Our Motherload Farm Club (MFC) is located in Valley Center, CA. We are a private Ministerial association. Our main food producer is the Motherload Farm and Nursery located in Valley Center, CA.

Our members order together as a group of people through our Motherload Farm website and the pick-up is locally in Valley Center– on a weekly schedule.

You must be a member to gain access to our community and to purchase from our website or at our locations.

Once you have created your account you can start placing orders.

Can I cancel my membership?

Yes, you can cancel your membership at any time. Just send us an email to info@motherloadfarm.com

How to place an order?

Orders are placed through the website. Each weekly offering has an order deadline which we will describe below.

You will receive our deadline email reminders and you can always check our website.

When are the order deadlines?

Sunday thru Wednesday 8pm for Saturday pickup at the Motherload Farm. Placing your order “early” is highly recommended so we have not run out of certain items.

All members will receive a weekly MLF availability update to stay informed about current specials/promotions. The weekly update will be made available to you by email.

Orders received AFTER Wednesday will be held for the next week.

What payment methods are accepted?

When you place your order, you will be prompted for your credit card or your bank account information. Your credit card or debit card will have been processed and the receipt will be emailed to you. There is also a cash option at pick-up.

What if I have to cancel my order?

We understand that unpredictable things can happen and that the need to cancel an existing order might arise. The deadline for cancelling an order is by 6 PM on the Thursday prior to pick-up. Please contact Jack at (949) 310-3235 if you wish to cancel your order. After 6 PM on Thursday your order cannot be stopped as the farm has started the packing process. If you or a friend cannot pick up your order when it arrives, you can arrange delivery by calling Jack.

The absolute deadline to cancel your order is Thursday by 6 pm prior to the delivery date – orders cannot be cancelled after that time.

How do pick up days work?

Arrive at the MLF BARN on the pickup day between 8AM-12PM. Until we get to know you, bring your order or your ID and our Club member will hand you your order nicely boxed up and ready to go.

Once you receive your order, please check it against your emailed receipt.
It is your responsibility to make sure that you pick up your food on time and bring it into cold storage as quickly as possible.

You don’t need to bring a cooler if you plan to place your food into cold storage within an hour of picking it up.

What if my order is damaged or something is missing?

In the rare event that an item is missing from your order, or anything is damaged, we advise you to contact Jack at (949) 310-3235 immediately so we can assist you and help you resolve that issue.
