Share Notes
- Corn: It’s been a hot summer and we’re ready for sweet corn. Unfortunately this morning’s lightening storm prevented our crew from harvesting corn for our Tuesday pick-up sites, so it’s going out on rotation this week. We keep close track of what each site receives, so if you miss out this week it will be made up in the future.
CSA Pick-up Reminders
The summer heat is on and we thought it was about time to remind you all of some pick-up site etiquette to keep in mind as you continue to pick-up and enjoy your share this season.
- Please only take the share size you have signed-up for. If you take the wrong share type then that leaves another member without a share to pick-up.
- Please COLLAPSE and NEATLY STACK your share container at your pick-up site.
- Please place white plastic lids in the recycling bin at your pick-up site.
- Please pick-up any vegetable debris you may have dropped while picking up your share.
- Please check-in on the clipboard each week, it is our only way of tracking who has (or hasn’t) picked-up each week.
- Vacation Reschedules must be arranged by contacting the farm.
