FS16 Wk04 Shares, 4/19&20/2023

Welcome to Fair Shares Season 16 Wk4

We'll see all Full Share, Mini Share, and EVEN-week Half Share members 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.

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. You may update your cart as many times as you like. Your share will be packed for you regardless, selecting a 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.

This email is how we communicate with members. Please at least scan it so you know any important information. If you have questions, just reply to this email.

Join our Facebook group to get help from seasoned members, ask questions and share your food inspirations. https://www.facebook.com/groups/49485152740

Quick Carrot Salad

with Pesto

Pesto goes a long way in a simple salad with carrots, so add it a tablespoon at a time to reach the desired flavor. Read more

Ground Chicken and Bok Choy Bowl

I made this dish because I love bok choy! It’s dubbed a superfood because bok choy is full of selenium which helps clear toxins from the body. This plus it’s a great source of vitamin C. Also I forgot to use the mushrooms from last week and found that if you pulse mushrooms in the food processor, they blend in with any ground meat!

Klondike Bison owner and long-time Fair Shares member Peggy Ladd has had a rough couple of weeks with bison escaping during a storm, and it had a sad ending. You can follow the story on the Klondike Bison and Bees Facebook page and you can read the article from My Leader Story here

Don't make a trip to the grocery store; pick up your milk when you get your food from Fair Shares!

You can set up a standing weekly or bi-weekly order so that we will be sure to have your milk for you (you may cancel at anytime).

Feel free to order from the online store, or place a one-time order to see how you like it. Read more

Notes on Trades and Orders

If you have questions or an issue to resolve, please email info@fairshares.org. We get nearly 400 order confirmation emails in the orders@fairshares.org account and WE DO NOT ALWAYS CHECK THEM, 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.

Here's a video demo on how to make trades. Note that Farmigo has updated their system to allow you to click the items in your cart that have variations for you to select. Here's the link to LOGIN.

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.
