The goldenrod is in full bloom these days, blanketing the landscape with yellow hues. Leaves are beginning to turn, apples are ripening, and our winter squash is ready to pick and cure. But for now we still have all the flavors of summer.

Glacial Till Farm: The fundamentals of our vegetable production system. Multi species cover crop on the right, in preparation for spring carrots. Shallow wheel hoe cultivation in banded salad mix. It’s so satisfying to work with the soil to produce food for our community.
Reminders and Tips:
Upcoming Schedule Change: The share customization period will end early on 9/25, 10/9, and 10/16. I will be off some days those weeks, so I need to report sales to our farmers early. If you typically wait until Sunday night to customize your share, be aware of these dates. Shares will also be finalized early some of those weeks, so if your payment comes out of your bank account, please make sure the funds are there early.
Check your preferences: your box will be automatically filled with the vegetables that you prefer, or in the case of a Market Box, it will be filled with all of your preferences. You can now swap items out with anything in the market. Sometimes our swaps are limited so it is best to have your box filled with your preferences on the first pass. You can even change your preferences throughout the season.
Customize: Once you receive this email, you can now customize your box. Now you can swap any and all items in your box and add extra items you like from our ever-growing selection of high-quality organic foods and products. Simply add them to your box and your card will be charged upon finalization of your order. The customization window will close at 11pm on Sunday.
Add another item to your cart: Check to see if you have "more value" left in your share by going to customization - click on your cart - then click back to the items. If a green bar appears that says you can add items because you have left over value in your share, try adding another veggie or low cost item to your cart to see.
**Be sure to return clean milk bottles. You can throw the caps away. And if you want to return any egg cartons, plastic clamshells, etc., we will reuse them.
** If you have any questions about customizing your box, billing or your account, contact Harvie support. Any other questions, contact me! Read help doc How Swaps Work and How Preferences Work help doc.
