Auto-Renew for Winter Shares! News October 31, 2018

Posted on October 26th, 2018 by Eve Kaplan-Walbrecht

Happy Halloween! Brr the cold weather is finally here! We will need to know if you will be joining us for Garden of Eve fresh produce through the winter months! This is the 3rd to last week of the summer/fall share, with the Winter Share starting the week of November 29.  

Winter Share will be picked up on Thursdays at Bayport, Roslyn, Mt Sinai, and we have confirmed a great new Stony Brook location! Thursday Pick ups are Nov 29, Dec 13, 2018, Jan 10, 2019, Feb 7, Mar 7, April 11, May 2.    

At the farm, pick up will be Friday nights starting at 5pm and all day Sat and Sun, it’s self-service. Saturday Dates are Dec 1, 2018, Dec 15, 2018, January 12, 2019, February 9, March 9, April 13, May 4.  

All our NYC locations will pick up on Saturdays or Sundays, you can check the website for details if you or anyone else is interested.  

As with the summer shares, you will be able to place shares on hold or switch locations as needed, and customize your boxes.

   An auto-renew has been set up through Harvie for Monday, November 12 as a convenience to you to hold your spot in the share and to help us know how many shares are available to sell to the public.  Current CSA members will always receive future CSA shares before offering them to the rest of the community.  

If you have a vegetable share in summer/fall, you will get a "full diet" share for winter. All the other shares (except flowers) continue the same into winter. Of course you can change this configuration in your dashboard. 

By default, your account is already set to auto-renew for the winter using the payment plan (not paid in full), so we do suggest going in and double checking that this designation is correct.

If you want to opt out of the auto-renew or change your payment schedule, log into your Harvie account, click “My Profile” and then “Edit Profile”.  Scroll to the bottom of the page where you will see a check box to allow auto-renew, along with the payment options (pay in full or payment plan).

Please make your selection to auto-renew or not by Sunday, November 11 so we know if we should hold your spot in the share!  

And of course, any and all feedback about the program, the online system, your pick up locations, or produce you have received is welcome! Let us know what you love and what you don’t so we can continue to make this into the best program it can be for you, our awesome members!
