Are you getting Home Delivery? Invest in a cooler for your meat/freezer orders!

  • If you have signed up for a home delivery route, we highly suggest getting a cooler for us to leave your frozen orders in while it waits for you to get home because it gets very hot in the summer!
  • We take back the boxes!! 
    • Please return the veggie boxes, containers, and other farm items. Don't recycle them! We reuse.
    • Leave them out your following delivery & the driver will grab them.

How to reschedule your shares on your Harvie profile:

  1. Go to the shares tab on your account. 
  2. Select the share you want to reschedule.
  3. Please DO NOT put your share on hold, reschedule it immediately.
    • We ask this because what happens is you forget to reschedule the box & come to the end of the season, you miss out on a box you've paid for. :(
  4. You will be doubling up your normal order so be prepared for extra veggies that week.
  5. Meat shares can only be rescheduled to meat weeks (1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17 &19)
    1. You may need to correspond your veggie share to accommodate this IF you have a meat share when rescheduling.
  6. Double check it was changed & then you are good!

Farm Store in Zephyr is open Thursday-Sundays. (See calendar on website)

Please Return Boxes & Red Cooler Bags!

  • Home Delivery: Please leave the box & containers out for the drivers to pick up.
  • Pick Up Locations: Leave the box and/or items there and we will pick them up.
