Our deadline to sign up for Associative Contracts has been extended to April 30th, 2020. 

We are continuing to offer Associative Contracts (AC’s) for the 2020 season with discounts for payments made by March 31, 2020. Please note that we have simplified the AC structure to one discount level regardless of the size of your operation.

All AC Partners will receive a 15% discount on current catalog prices and on all preparation orders throughout the year. Additionally, AC Partners are offered an annual consultation tailored to your specific needs and uses of the preparations with one of our educational professionals.  Payments must be made by March 31, 2020 to receive your discount.

Actual shipping charges will be added to all shipments.

As with Steiner’s concept of associative economics, our Associative Contracts emphasize the development of a conscious coordination between producer and consumer through which we meet each other’s needs. In this modality, biodynamic practitioners contract to support the yearly work of JPI at the beginning of the season, while being rewarded for their investment with a reduced cost of purchase. This partnership helps us to plan our preparation making and distribution schedule in advance while assuring that your biodynamic prep needs are met adequately and without delay.

By designating your delivery dates in advance, you will receive biodynamic preparations close to the time you plan to use them, assuring proper storage at JPI in the interim. Contracts may be customized, with the cost adjusted accordingly. Please see below for some options when customizing your contract.
