Week 17!
The farm has a very autumnal feel this week! We have super totes full of hundred of pounds of different varieties of squash, pumpkins, and now we've added sweet potatoes to the collection! Some of the sweet potatoes that have come in from the fields weigh close to 7lbs!!! But don't worry, we have plenty of average sized potatoes for the shares.
Tomatoes are slowing down and are only available on a limited basis, so swap them into your cart before they're gone!
This week we are offering bulk corn! My favorite way of saving a piece of summer is to cut the kernels off the cob and freeze them for later! I love making chowder of a chilly winter day with some of the corn I saved.
Here are some helpful tips :)
- If you find something missing from your share or forget to pick up your share REACH OUT TO US! If you don't pick up your share on your delivery day you will have 24 hours to contact me to arrange an alternative pick up. This could be a pick up at a different location, or we just send it again the next week with that weeks share! If you are missing an item from your box please contact me as well. I am more than happy to send a replacement item the next week, or give you a refund.
- Use a computer NOT a phone or tablet for customizing and avoid the Internet Explorer browser. The Harvie website sometimes has a few glitches when accessed on these devices. For the smoothest experience I heavily suggest accessing your Harvie account and customizing your share through a computer or laptop, with a browser like Chrome.
- To customize click the button in your email. You have 48 hours until the window closes to complete your customizations. You can swap things in and out of your box, OR add in extras beyond what you have already paid for! If you are having trouble customizing your order use this link for an in-depth explanation.
- If you received "credit" from one of our signup incentives, you will see it in your account as a positive "balance". This "Harvie Balance" should be visible on the customization screen and will be automatically used as soon as possible. This means, if you are on the payment plan, it will be applied to your share price the first week. If you paid in full, it will be applied the first time you add extra items to your share.
What do you have to choose from? I'll tell you!

Recipe of the week: Savory Sweet Potato Casserole!
I used to think I disliked sweet potatoes until I found this recipe about 5 years ago! There is no added sugar, just savory ingredients that work to highlight the natural flavors and sugars of sweet potatoes! I make this recipe multiple times a year especially in the fall when fresh sweet potatoes are in their prime.
