Associate and Corporate Members Our Corporate Membership consists of 5 levels and the dues are payable annually. Platinum $5,000 Gold $2,000 Silver $1,000 Bronze $500 Associate $250 Our associate and corporate members receive various benefits throughout the year based on the level of membership that they choose. According to our By-Laws we cannot publish our grower mailing list. However, one of the perks that our associate and corporate members have found to be very beneficial is the mail-out services. A member can prepare a mail-out that they would like to send to our growers (stuff it, seal it, and stamp it),send it to us, and we will print and attach our labels to the mail-out and mail it for them. This allows them to reach our growers without having access to our list. There is a $25.00 charge for this service.
View our Associate Members Grower Members Our supporting growers each pay a voluntary assessment to the Association in the amount of $50/acre of strawberries that they plant each year. In return, the grower members in good standing receive a rebate at the end of the season for Florida patented plants that they purchased at the rate of $.50/ thousand and/or $2.00/thousand depending on the variety. In addition, those grower members who choose to participate in our endorsed workers compensation program with FCCI may also receive a rebate from FCCI at the end of the berry season. In some cases, a grower member may receive back in rebates more than they paid in assessments to the Association during the year.
