Farm Happenings for 12/7/20: Auto-Renew for Winter Bounty Shares Starts 12/7 & Update from Dig Deep Farm

Posted on December 2nd, 2020 by Daybreak Growers Alliance

Hello Farm Share members, We're happy to be getting the Winter Bounty Share Auto-Renew underway for existing members! If you've been enjoying your Farm Shares then get ready for the abundance of our Winter Bounty Shares. $36/bi-weekly. A mixture of winter hardy greens and storage vegetables, on average 7-8 per delivery. These shares also offer a wide array of unique pantry items and produce preserved from the height of the growing season to compliment your veggies, like local dried beans for hearty soups and stews, canned tomatoes and salsa or local cornmeal to make a quick bread and warm up your winter kitchen. Designed for two adults or a small family. $18 per week, delivered two weeks at a time January through May. We'll continue to have our Meat and Chicken Shares as well as Add-on Shares and all the Extras available to add to your deliveries.

Here's how it will work:
On December 7, 2020 we will start the process, if you currently have a Local 25 or Winter Bounty Share AND Auto-Renew is ON in your account your share will be renewed for the Winter Season as a Winter Bounty Share PLUS any active Add-on Shares that you may have, like eggs, cheese, yogurt, etc. All of the Meat and Chicken Shares will renew in the same manner also.

Between December 7 and December 13 you will have the opportunity to easily edit your order for the Winter Season. At this time you can confirm your order, add or remove Add-on Shares or Main Shares, and if you did not intend to Auto-renew you will be able to cancel the order entirely.

On December 14 orders will finalize and your card will be charged for whatever shares will be in your first delivery, future payments are then made for whatever is delivered in a week, no large upfront payments with our Pay X Delivery plan. This is the same payment plan we currently use.

Where to find the Auto-Renew setting in your account:
Under the MY PROFILE tab in your account -----> AUTO-RENEW SETTINGS, here you can toggle Auto-renew ON or OFF.

Email farmers@daybreakgrowersalliance.com if you'd like assistance with any of these steps as we move through the process, we want this to be as smooth as possible for everyone!


Update from Dig Deep Farm

The long and warm Fall has been rare and lovely this season.  It has helped us bring our root crops in on time and cover our field grown over wintered crops like swiss chard, thyme, and a late seeding of spinach.  Our best crop of all has been our daughter Freeda - she turned one in August and her personality keeps us smiling!
 
We are looking forward to slowing down a bit - we are making balsam fir wreaths for a farmer's markets and growing lots of micro greens and pea shoots for the Daybreak Winter Bounty Share. We also hope to help fill your boxes with sweet beets and carrots.
 
Embrace these longer nights – hopefully more mini dance parties are helping to make your days lively!
