Week 12!
The heat has finally subsided (sort of) but it has still done a number to some of our crops! Our green beans, lettuce, and herbs are all in recovery mode as we hope for rain. The drought hasn't been too much for our nectarines though! This week we have nectarines in the fruit shares, and we have bulk #2 peaches AND nectarines! Woo! We are also offering beautiful bunches of gladiolus! It came as such a surprise when I walked into the packing house at the farm to find buckets of gladiolus, so tall and so vibrant, they have definitely brought joy to the packing house today!
Psst... We have husk cherries this week!
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.
