Welcome to Fair Shares Season 15 Wk8
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 need to switch the day, reply to this email before 10a.m. Wednesday.
|
All orders are due by 10:30 am Wednesday! If you don't make trades, your standard share below will be packed.
|
LOGIN HERE to select your time and ADD it in your cart. (Mercy South members don't need to select a time.) Make sure that you receive your order confirmation email, or your order didn't go through.
|
|
Note that you may update your cart as many times as you like. Your share will be packed for you whether you select a time or not, it just helps us have it ready when you arrive.

Missed Pickup Policy
As produce picks up, it becomes more of an issue when members fail to. We pull the frozen items at the end of the pickup and make notes on the bags. We want to give everyone a chance to reschedule before we dismantle the bags, especially when an order was placed, but we need the walk-in space by the following Tuesday.
|
|
We pack, unpack, and repack a lot of bags each week. We'll attempt to email no-shows in the hopes of minimizing excess handling, but ask everyone to make a concerted effort to get your bags picked up by Friday----you can come between 11:30 and 2:30. Email if you're coming so we know not to disassemble your bags. Repeated no-shows will incur a $5 restocking fee if you want to reclaim your missed food the following week. Thanks for your help and understanding! ❤️

Week 7 bags remaining the following Monday.

Lions Mane Mushrooms
|
|
We've heard from a number of members that they don't know how to use these mushrooms, so here is a suggestion that I've tried and enjoyed, and also a link to aubreyskitchen.com, where you'll find a recipe for Vegan (or Vegetarian) Crab Cakes that looks and sounds like a special treat.

Strawberry Meals Forever
|
|
Whenever the fruit arrives, I go a little nuts and have to eat it with every meal: from granola, yogurt and strawberries for breakfast to fruit, nuts and cheese on salad for lunch, to strawberries and cheese on crackers (served with prosecco, perhaps) for hors d'oeuvres, and do we even begin to talk about dessert?
|
|
One of my favorite weekend breakfasts (or weekday dinners) is a fried egg on a salad with strawberries, and a croissant. Don't forget the mimosa... Read more

Tip: Clean Greens
|
|
The greens we get (particularly some of the winter spinach) can be pretty dirty. Sometimes they're pristinely clean, but still, we suggest you always wash your food! Give it an initial rinse and then remove the stems and soak the leaves in plenty of clean water. I use my salad spinner, placing the leaves in the basket and filling the …

Asparagus Pesto
|
|
I first saw asparagus pesto in a New York Times piece by Mark Bittman. It was a really good recipe. I've made it so many times now that I just throw it together from memory. Really, you can't go wrong however you want to adapt this recipe…

Happy Milk from Ozark Mountain Creamery
|
|
Don't make a separate 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 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 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.
|
|
Please check the descriptions of items! Some things are sold by the pound 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.
|
|
Pro Tip: You can browse the store when it's "closed" by logging out of your account.
|
|
|
PLANT ORDER NOTES:
The plants listed in the store will be ordered from the farmer for your next pickup, not this week. When your plants have been ordered, we will add the item Pre-ordered Plants into your cart.
|
|
Note regarding "Choice" items in your shares: You can click the item to see what choices it mentions in the description, then make your selection via the online store by placing your choice in your cart and deleting the "choice" from your cart.
