Important for Customizing your Pork...

Posted on September 29th, 2021 by Marie Williamson

See below for Important Customizing Info

Flavorful pork for fall meals.  It's pork and greens time again. Or baby ginger and pork stirfry! I took a 3 1/2 pound bone in pork roast and diced the pork shoulder into little stir fry pieces and made a soy sauce, brown sugar, Korean red chili, and baby ginger marinade in order to have quick stir fries meals this week. Made for an easy Sunday dinner. Sunshine, fresh air, good food, and diverse forage makes for great pork.

 
Don't make your box undervalue by removing items and not adding enough items back into it. You can remove several items from your box, but you'll still pay the minimum price for your membership box that week.
-All the veggies (for veggie members) and meats have different values/prices- some are lower and some are higher depending on type and size of the items that I put into the program's harvest selection. If you take an item out of your box like a 3 pound pork shoulder and want to replace it with sausage, you'll need to find several sausages to add back into your box.
 
-There is a box value alert at the top of your screen if you have more credit for this week, a green bar that says you can add more items to your share/box.
   
-The other customizing tip that I have noticed that helps members, is to keep adding items to your box until your shopping cart's total is just over your share's price...for example if you have a $25 regular veggie share, go over the box value by $1-3...so about $25.50 or $26.30 or something like that.  That green bar with the box value alert should go away at that time.
