Welcome to Fair Shares Wk 46!

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].
To switch the day or location, reply to this email before 10a.m. Wednesday so we can switch you in the system, otherwise you won't show up on the correct report.
*Half share members, please note that if you shop on your off-weeks, it will show that you have a pickup each week, so you need to note whether it's an even or odd week to know if you're getting a share.

LOGIN HERE to select your time and ADD it in your cart. Make sure that the time you want is in your order confirmation email. 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.


❄️ Season 13 Ends in 4 weeks, March Break 3/1-23 ❄️

Fair Shares is off for the first three weeks of March - mark your calendar!

We take the first three weeks of March off while little fresh produce is available, so please plan accordingly. We'll be running through Week 49 this season. which will be February 24 & 25. We will offer an opportunity to come shop for staples on Wednesday, March 10th. Although we'd love to, we won't be hosting the Shopping Day Happy Hour as we've done in the past, so we're planning another virtual cocktail party -- St. Patrick's Day, perhaps? We already have Big O Ginger Liqueur lined up with FSA members Billy and Kathy Foster. Any other members in the industry who may want to be included?

Note on egg cartons: Our farmers do not use styrofoam cartons and they want only their own cartons back. Please recycle any egg cartons but those you receive from us.

Mashed Mashed Potato Squash

Mashed Potato Squash
This white skinned squash, shaped like an elongated acorn squash, produces a creamy flesh that fluffs up just like its namesake. It can be a great substitute for those avoiding starchy potatoes, or blend with the real deal for a lighter, super satisfying lower calorie alternative.

Here is a good website with a recipe suggested by member Joanne McAndrews…

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. 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.
