September is right around the corner!! I can't believe we are already approaching fall and the equinox. It's always interesting to think about the daylight and how it changes with the seasons. Right now we have the same amount of daylight that we do in early April...it doesn't seem possible because the temperatures are so different here in early April and late August.
At any rate the light is also an important indicator of fall for me. The plants feel it, the people and animals feel it and it's now time to reap the harvests and store up food for the winter!
On that note...we've got 20 pound boxes of canning tomatoes available and you can always order extra sweet corn by the dozen to freeze for the winter! We froze corn last weekend and just a note: about 6 ears of corn will give you about a 10 oz bag of corn (small size in the grocery store).
***PLEASE READ BELOW IF YOU ORDER MILK***
We now have a $2.00 bottle deposit built into the price of your milk and cream!
Once you are finished with the product, please rinse your bottles and label each bottle with your full name using painter's tape and a sharpie. If your bottle isn't labeled we have no way to issue you the credit.
You can bring your bottles when you pick up your next box at your pick up location, or leave your bottles and other returnable items outside your house the day of your next home delivery.
Once we receive your bottles back with your first and last name on each bottle, we will credit your Harvie account for the bottle return. This extra effort is more than worth it when we take into account the value of reusing glass milk and cream bottles from Burbach's!
Thank you for taking the time to help us reuse as many packaging items as possible!
