  Do you like swapping items out of your shares for some customizing fun?

  • This is great! We love that you're enjoying being able to makes changes, if you'd, like to your shares. 
  • We want to remind you;
    • Make sure if you delete an item that you add another in. Other wise your share may be under value depending on the prices of the cuts.
      • *Sometimes to add another item in you need to double an item you already have. Then you can 'swap' out 1 of the 2 for a different item.
    • There is a cart Window the slide out from the right hand side that shows what you have in your share, if you owe extra, or if your share in undervalue.
    • When swapping, you may trade a lesser value item for a higher priced item. You will in-cure a "swap charge" and will have to pay the difference.

Please Salt Your Driveways!

• Tis the time of year for slipping & falling.
• Please make it easier on our drivers and keep you walk ways clear & salted. 
• Big thanks!

• With the uncertainty of many items these days, we wanted to be on top of things.
• We have our seed orders booked- most remained the same price, some increases but not terrible.
