Hello CSA Members!
We are finally starting to see some of our favorite vegetables come into season and make it into your shares. Carrots, Peas, Scallions, oh my! Something new this year with Harvie that we are excited about is that it is easier for us farmers to put items into your shares which we may not have enough of for everyone. So instead of having to wait until the snap peas are yielding enough for everyone, we can put a small quantity of snap peas and a small quantity of other similar crops like fava beans, and some of you will get snap peas, and some will get favas, based in part on your preferences! So although you may be looking at your neighbor's pickup slip and wondering why you are getting different items, know that it is because we are now able to offer more crops more often. You might not get something one week, but over the course of the season, you most likely will!
A few notes about your Harvie profiles: make sure to log in and select your vegetable preferences, and check back occasionally, we do add new items from time to time as the season progresses.
Also, some confusion about changing your pickup: If you need to switch from a Monday at the farm pickup to a Friday at the farm pickup, for example, you have to click on Change Location (not intuitive, we know, and are working on it) because Harvie thinks of each pickup day at the farm (Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat) as a different location. Hope that makes sense and helps.
Also remember to make any changes to your pickup day or location at least a week ahead of time, because most of our harvest estimates are put in to the system 3 or 4 days ahead of time
This whole system is a work in progress, so thanks for your understanding and patience as we learn and grow with it.
Hope you are all enjoying this beautiful summer weather!
Pick your own this week is the same as last week!
