Girl Scout Fall Product Sale Program
Every fall, Girl Scouts of Michigan Shore to Shore holds a nuts and magazine sale to help troops build their funds for planned activities and outings. All of the proceeds stay in western and northern Michigan to help local girls and troops. Through the sale, girls have the opportunity to build essential life skills including, money management, business skills, marketing skills and goal setting skills. Combing educational activities with money-earning activities for the girls is what the Fall Product Sale Program is all about.
This year's theme is Investing in Today = Success for Tomorrow! Make sure to check out all the cool activity sheets, website activities and downloadable coloring sheets at the Ashdon Farms website here.
And, did you know?! Any girl who is a registered Girl Scout can sell Fall Product! Even if your troop is not selling, you still can. Contact your nearest Product Sales Manager and start selling today. Earn money for trips, community service projects, council events & programs, cool Girl Scout items in our shops and more!

New CFO Program for Cadettes, Seniors & Ambassadors!
CFO, short for Creative Funding Opportunity, is an online program which allows girls to develop a business plan for their own online business selling Ashdon Farms gift products to area businesses and corporations. Girls will begin marketing their businesses and will receive credit for any purchases made online by December 13, 2011.
Products offered online are different from our traditional line-up and will range in price from $25-$50. For your convenience these prices include tax and shipping. This is a great way to give a high quality gift for the holidays while also supporting your local Girl Scouts. Approximately 35% of the purchase price, after tax and shipping, goes back to Girl Scouting.
The CFO Program is open to Cadettes-Ambassadors. Required training will be held October 4-6 from 7-8 PM (after the Fall Kickoff Open houses at each Service Center).
*For those in outlying areas who are not near a Service Center, contact your nearest Retail & Products Sales Manages for details.
