Welcome to Fair Shares Season 15 Wk18

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

Share Holds

Please note that we need to know by Monday morning if you won't be picking up your share so we don't purchase the produce. We know there are emergency situations that come up, and we often end up with a lot of extra produce we have to donate, so knowing in advance whenever possible saves us, time, space, work and money. Thanks!

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

A Little Help?

Thanks for the volunteer offers we've received so far. We think we could use a couple more people as we get into the heavy produce season.

If you have an hour or so on Wednesdays between 10a.m. and 1p.m. to help fill produce bags at the Mothership, we would be very grateful, and you would get an opportunity to get a more in-depth appreciation for your food and our program!

Let us know when you're available and we'll give you important details (like Please wear a mask and Be sure to wear closed-toes shoes). Thanks!

Carrot Top Pesto

This recipe is super versatile. You could make it just like a pesto and sub carrot tops for basil. I played around with it a bit because I’m using it as a dressing for bowls I’m making ahead for meal prep. Read more

Refrigerator Kale Salad

by Beth Sorrell

I love salads that you throw together and they actually taste better the next day, and the day after that. This is a great one. Read more

Dog Shampoo

Even though we have a TNR cat colony at Fair Shares, we're now offering dog shampoo from Bee Simple in the online store, because dogs are people, too! I suppose you could use it on your cat as well, if you're into that sort of trauma, but for those of you wanting to give your dog a new do, do check it out in the Gifts and Such category!

Cuke, Tomato, Peach, & Corn Salad

The name of the recipe sort of says it all. You can use equal proportions, or more or less of any depending on your tastes, or what you have available. This salad is so fresh it deserves a slap on the face. It also makes a delicious salsa with the addition of hot peppers, … Read more

Notes on Trades and Orders

If you have questions or an issue to resolve, please email info@fairshares.org rather than replying to the email or we may not see it.

The share clipboards below 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. 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.
