Welcome to Fair Shares Week 20!

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

Your assigned pickup day is [Delivery Day], and your group is [Pickup Site]. If you need to switch days for the week, reply to this email before 10a.m. Wednesday so we can switch you in the system.

Restocking Fee Policy

We will be charging a fee for members who repeatedly miss their pickup. Dealing with unclaimed bags is both annoying and time consuming at the end of very long, hot days. We understand that things come up and there are emergencies, but we pay people to pack the bags, bring them outside, bring them back inside, fish out and put away the frozen items, write the fished out items on the bag, put the bags in the cooler (if they haven't gotten soggy and fallen apart), and then collect and repack the bags when you show up. This may not sound like that big a deal, but multiply it by about 15 people per week, some with multiple bags and large orders, and you get the idea. This is just an "extra handling" fee, which will incur as follows:

First miss: No Charge
Second: $2
Third: $5
Fourth and up: $10

If you have trouble making your pickup on a regular basis, 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.
We know, this is a lot of boring text to weed through, so here is a blackberry distraction. The season is nearing its end, so love on them while you can!

Anything Missing?

Remember to check your bag before you leave. Let us know of any missing or wrong items. We may not be able to correct a problem in UCity or Kirkwood, but you can help save us a million emails and future work if you let us correct your bag when you pick up at the Mothership.

Share Holds

If you are planning to put your share on hold while you are on vacation this summer, 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.
You may send someone else to collect your share if you forget, but we can't credit you for the produce we are stuck with. Thanks for your understanding.

Roast Ahead Veggies

Roast Ahead Veggies Sometimes the perfect summer lunch is a cold sandwich made from last night's roasted veggies that have been marinating in a little balsamic vinaigrette overnight. Or maybe you want that perfect pasta dish that's as fast as opening a jar of sauce, but oh so much better! Preparation It's not so hard to slice up a few …

Fig Olive Tapenade

Fig Olive Tapenade

I rarely do more than just eat Ivan's fresh figs right out of hand--though I do love them with a little blue cheese. If I were to try them in an actual recipe, something like this tapenade would probably make me really happy. Preparation 1/2 cup or so of fresh figs, stemmed and cut in quarters) 1 cup …

Cucumber, Tomato, Peach and 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

Kirkwood Members!

Got a minute?

If you're able to help--maybe unload at the start of pickup, hand out a few bags when you arrive, or load up the van at the end of pickup--we would really appreciate a few minutes your time.

We really couldn't do this without all our wonderful staff and volunteers, so thank you for all you do to make it easier on us! Opening and stacking your egg cartons and berry cartons with like cartons, folding and stacking your paper bags, Nick not only shows up early on Thursdays to put Kirkwood shares together, drive them to Kirkwood and pass them out to you all, he scrambles back to unload and help us with packing bags and distributing from 3:30 to 7:00 at the Mothership. Getting him back earlier would be a huge help, so please offer a hand if you're able. ❤️

Notes on Trades and Orders

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 try again.

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 miss the trades window, please just come after 4:30.

PLEASE, SHOW UP ON YOUR ASSIGNED PICKUP DAY!


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.
