Welcome back and welcome aboard! We are grateful to have you as a member this season. In our weekly farm happenings we will keep you up-to-date on important details and stories from the farm. Please take a few minutes to read through these happenings when possible to stay connected. If you are getting a box every other week you can always log in to read Farm Happenings from the alternate weeks if you're so inclined.
Are you new to the farm this season or have you forgotten how this whole Harvie customization business works? I'll give you a quick rundown in case you need a reminder on how to customize your upcoming veggie share.
Every Saturday evening (or every other depending on your share frequency) you will receive an email from the farm telling you what is slotted to be in your box. At that time you can make changes to your share by clicking the "Swap Items" button in the email. The first thing you'll see on the Customize page is the cut-off date and time for this week's delivery. You can revisit this page to make changes to your box as many times as you wish until the cut-off time. At this point, we begin the harvesting and packing process and can no longer accept changes. When visiting this page, there will be a list of all the items that are scheduled to be in your box, referred to as "In Your Cart." Each product will have an image, several information fields and a series of actions you can take. The most common action is to swap items.
Swap: If you would like to exchange an item in your share for another item click the Swap button. A popup will appear with a list of products that are available to substitute for the one you selected. If an item is priced higher than the one it would replace, you will also see a note that it incurs a "swap charge" for the difference. If something you wanted is sold out, do not despair! Available inventory changes frequently as members customize their boxes. Return to this page again before the cut-off time, and if other people have removed the product from their cart, you will be able to add it to yours. Check out this link for more detail:

Enough business for now! Let's get excited about the good food that is soon heading to your table. At this moment in time, the farm is well endowed with leafy greens of multiple varieties. And its a good thing too, because some of our field crops are a bit behind! The cold wet stretch this spring prevented many growers from getting in the field "on time". We expect the crops to catch up quickly as the days continue to get longer, but please be patient with us while we wait for the familiar faces of early summer like peas and beets to mature. There is much variety to come in the weeks ahead!
Thanks again for joining us this season. We hope you enjoy what the farm is growing:-)
Happy crunching and munching,
Danielle
