Thanksgiving Week Schedule
Thanksgiving is this week and there is a special schedule. If you would normally pick up on Wednesday November 27, you will pick up on Monday November 25. If you would normally pick up on Thursday the 28th, you will pick up on Tuesday the 26th. You must make let us know if you want to pick up on the other day by 10 am Monday, and make your trades by Monday morning at 10:30. Please be aware that some automated communications will still refer to pickups being Wednesday and Thursday.
|
For Thanksgiving week, Union Loafers will only be delivering on Tuesday, so any Wednesday pickup groups who will be coming on Monday for the holiday will not have the option of getting Union Loafers, and they can not offer us extras for Tuesday. Sorry!
|
|
We'll see all Full Share, Mini Share, and ODD-week Half Share members this week.
|
(Note the ODD and EVEN half shares correspond to the odd- or even-numbered weeks of our season.)
|
SEE THE THANKSGIVING SCHEDULE BELOW--THIS INFO DOESN'T APPLY THIS WEEK!
|
Your assigned pickup day is [Delivery Day], but if you ever need to switch the day or location, reply to this email before 10a.m. Wednesday, and then look for a thumbs up or confirmation reply from us.
|
LOGIN HERE to select your time and ADD it in your cart. Make sure that the time you want is in your order confirmation email. If you don't receive an automated confirmation email, your order didn't go through. You may update your cart as many times as you like until we run our report at 10:30 Wednesday. Your share will be packed for you regardless of whether you make changes or select a time. The time just helps us organize and have your bags ready when you arrive.
|
Pro Tip: You can browse the store when it's "closed" by logging out of your account, but keep in mind that we update the store inventory on Tuesdays just before sending out the newsletter.

Decorative Gourds Available

Not just for still life painting, these rustic decorative gourds look great on the front stoop, and are not as likely to draw the wildlife since they're already dried.

Notes on Trades and Orders
If you have questions or an issue to resolve, please email info@fairshares.org. Do not reply to the order confirmation emails that send to orders@fairshares.org account--WE DO NOT ALWAYS CHECK THAT MAILBOX BEFORE PICKUPS, so if you want a reply, use info@fairshares.org, which goes to both Jamie and Sara, and one of us will see it.
|
The share clipboards below will include the fresh produce on your list, but the cart in your Farmigo account lists only the tradable items in your share. You must spend the total credit value in your cart but you are welcome to buy extra. Any amount over the tradeable value will show as Extra Credit and you will be charged additional plus tax on that amount.
|
|
Please check the descriptions of items! Some things are sold by the pound (indicated by /lb. in the item name) so the actual price will be different from what's listed in the store. If what's in your bag is not what you were expecting, give it back. If you're at the Mothership, you may be able to choose something else. This is particularly important on items like bulk chicken breasts, where the item price shows the price per pound, but the package weight may be five pounds.
|
Pro Tip: You can browse the store when it's "closed" by logging out of your account.
|
|
Check Your Bags!
Please help us by confirming that the bag we give you has your name on it (sometimes we know your name, sometimes we think we know your name, sometimes we grab the wrong bag).
|
Also please scan the outside of the bag near your name for notes that might require we grab something from the freezer, or for you to make a choice. We can be easily distracted and miss something when handing out so many shares.
|
Check that you've gotten everything you were supposed to receive--if you're missing produce that we need to credit you for, that's a loss we'd rather not take if we can help it.
