Welcome to Fair Shares Wk 24 (out of 48)!

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

Your assigned pickup day is [Delivery Day], [Next Delivery Date], and your group is [Pickup Site]. If you need to switch the day or location, reply to this email before 10a.m. Wednesday so we can switch you in the system. If you just select a different pickup day from the store, it doesn't move you in the system and you won't show up on the correct report.

Login and select your time and ADD it in your cart. Make sure that the time you want is in your order confirmation email. If it's not, please go in and select another time.

You may update your cart as many times as you like.

If you aren't going to come early, please select the later time slots
If you didn't select a time, please just come after 4:30.

Please show up on [Delivery Day], [Next Delivery Date] to avoid a restocking fee.

Restocking Fee Policy
If you have trouble making your pickup on a regular basis, please don't sign up for a pickup time, and let us know ahead so we will always wait to fill your bag when you arrive. We won't charge you if we don't fill it ahead. If you miss your pickup without letting us know early, charges will be applied as follows

1st time: No Charge
2nd: $2
3rd: $5
4th plus: $10

We Deserve a Vacation - Notice #2

September Sanity Break - No Share Pickups Sept. 23 & 24

We will place all shares on hold for our break. If you wish to donate your share value, you may go take your share off hold after the 20th, otherwise note that this is why you have a hold on your share.

ODD-week Half shares, please note that you will skip the share entirely, so it will be a month between pickups for you! You may wish to order extras, shop on your off week, or take another share the week before or the week after--just let us know and we can set your account up for you.

EVEN-week Half shares: this won't affect you unless you normally shop on your off weeks.

Milk Buyers: If enough of you want to come to the Mothership on Wednesday 9/23 for a limited mid-afternoon window to pick up your milk (and get any extras you need) we may offer that possibility.
Let us know if you will definitely want to do so.

Vin&Bet
We know, this is a lot of boring text to weed through, so here are two former Fair Shares ferals, Vincent and Betty. They now live a life of luxury indoors on the island of Soulard.

Share Holds

If you need to put your share on hold, PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ORDER PRODUCE FOR THE SHARES ON MONDAYS, so you must make your share hold request by Monday at 8a.m. or you will be charged for your produce. Login to your account and click the Delivery Hold tab.

Anything Missing?

PLEASE check your bag before you leave!

Eggplant Boats

Eggplant Boats

If it weren't for coronavirus, I would be looking forward to being on a boat on the coast of Maine for our September break, so let's make some delicious eggplant boats to try to recreate the mood. Although a poor substitute for the smell of saltwater and an ocean breeze in your hair, these are really good. If you hate eggplant, this might be the recipe to change your mind … Read more

Figs & Caramelized Onions

An overabundance of figs can lead to fantastic discoveries. This gem of a combo is worth making on a small scale, too. Caramelized onions and figs complement one another wonderfully, and when you invite creamy chevre and blue cheese to the dish, you’re guaranteed a party. Whether you spread it on a pizza, a cracker, crusty bread or soft bread, served hot or cold, everyone will want to be at that party! Thanks to covid, you’ll have plenty of time to perfect your recipe before you have to share it at a party…

Watermelon Tomatillo Gazpacho

Chilled soup sounds pretty appealing on a hot summer day. This is a sweet and savory combination that you can use to cool your jets, or use a hot pepper and spice up your life.

Notes on Trades and Orders

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.

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.
