Things to say:
This week we will be using our new boxes with all of our delivery shares. Inside the boxes we will be using plastic liners. Our goal is to reuse the boxes (and maybe the liners where appropriate) as much as possible. We are going to be working to reduce the amount that we bag individual items inside the box. This may take some experimentation so bear with us while we work our way through this transition.
For delivery shares, please leave out your boxes the following week and we will pick them up and reuse them. They can be flattened and stored between deliveries. If the weather is cooperative (i.e. not below 0!) for the week we will just leave the box with you for delivery.
Here's what we have on offer this week from off the farm:
- Organic gala apples (3lb bag) from BC (Pfennings)
