How do I join?
The application procedure is simple:
Contact FABBL for a full new member information pack.
After reading the Producer Manual, complete the application form and return to FABBL with the payment.
An independent inspector will contact you to arrange an appointment and the inspection will take place.
Approximately 14 days after the inspection you will be contacted by FABBL informing you whether you have been accepted into the scheme. You will be sent a membership pack which includes a Certificate, Document labels, farm gate sign.
Membership is one yearly - a renewal notice inviting you to renew will be issued approximately 6 weeks before your expiry date.
Please note combinable crops membership is for each harvest and inspections must take place BEFORE harvest so applications must be received by May each year.
