Welcome to Fair Shares Season 15 Wk15

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

All orders are due by 10:30 am Wednesday! If you don't make trades, your standard share list 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.

Independence Day Weekend is coming up...

Be sure to stock up on all your grilling goodies and party snacks!

Have a vacation coming up and need to pay someone for looking after your house or pets? Share your share!

You can always let someone else pick up your share each week if you are out of town. That individual gets to try our tasty food and our farmers get the reliability of consistent member counts while you are away. It's a win win! Make sure to let us know at info@fairshares.org

Fair Shares Spotlight

We'd love to get to know our Fair Shares family better, so we're starting a fun new weekly feature to introduce everyone to our fabulous employees, volunteers and members (hint hint, that's you). We hope this will offer an opportunity for each of us to support one another in our various areas of expertise.

We invite you to fill out the interview questions per the instructions here, and we'll post a new introduction each week in the newsletter.

Mediterranean Lentil stew with Swiss Chard

Beth Sorrell's Wk 15 recipe

Who says stew is for winter? This is fresh tasting and light thanks to folding in the Swiss chard at the end and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. This might be the perfect summer alternative to salad!

Join our Fair Shares Facebook Group.

We have members who regularly post spectacular looking dishes they've made with their haul, so see what to do with those less than mainstay items you sometimes get in your bag.

Chinese Cole Slaw

This dish seems to get better as it sits. Save the ramen noodles to throw in just a little before serving so they still have some crunch.

It's that time of year when a refreshing cool soup fills the bill for lunch, leaving you raring to go for the rest of the hot afternoon. Read more

Notes on Trades and Orders

If you have questions or an issue to resolve, please email info@fairshares.org. We get too many emails in the orders@fairshares.org account to check them 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.

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 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.

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.
