Welcome to Fair Shares Season 17 Wk26
|
We'll see all Full Share, Mini Share, and EVEN-week Half Share members this week.
|
(Note the ODD and EVEN half shares correspond to the odd- or even-numbered weeks of our season.)
|
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.

With no-shows and extras already ordered for the store, there can be a glut of leftover produce if share holds are placed after we order.
|
|
In the wintertime, this isn't a big problem, but in high-produce season we have to charge you for the produce if you put your share on hold late. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

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. Thanks!

No YoBul or Windcrest Yogurt
|
Sorry, but Windcrest's machine is still down, so there will be no yogurt this week.

Due to the Independence Day holiday, we'll be skipping the break we normally take at the end of month.

Spaghetti and Zoodles with Meatballs
|
|
|
If you want your family to eat more veggies, hide them in plain sight. I have found that if I mix spaghetti with zucchini spirals (zoodles) I don’t even know I’m eating them! All ingredients are Fair Shares... Read more

Easy Roasted Patty Pan Squash
|
|
This is how I roast all my veggies. (Sara's note: I roast everything to within an inch of it's life--for an hour or more--so it's caramelized and charred; it makes even your least favorite veggies delicious!)

Jalapeno Corn Pudding
|
|
|
Sometimes the hardest decision of the day is whether to eat the corn on the cob, simply, with nothing but salt and pepper, or to create this completely decadent, utterly fattening, but soooo delicious corn pudding. Once you make it you’re done for–this recipe says it makes 9-12 servings, we say it serves 6-8. For the record, we forgot to put in the butter one time (found it in the microwave the next day), and it still turned out extraordinary… Read more

Sauteed Eggplant, Okra and Peppers
|
|
|
Someone told us that okra is only slimy once it's cut, so the secret should be to cook it whole. Eating it whole may present more of a challenge, but if you really have a problem with the texture of okra, you now know the solution… Read more

Thanks to those of you who have generously offered your shares to friends and family while on vacation. Our produce farmers especially appreciate it, and introducing your friends to Fair Shares is a great way to keep us sustainable.
|
People love to try new experiences. It's a great way to thank your house sitters while you're away!

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.
