We’ve got another pickup this Saturday. In addition to the expected line-up of spinach and potatoes, we’re putting cilantro back on the order form, as well as green onions, and tatsoi.
We will also be bringing as first-come, first-served:
Kale
Carrot seconds (still good, still sweet)
As you can see, the greenhouses are starting to produce more, so that means more variety for your table. We will be closing the survey on Wednesday night, but you can always come by on Saturday to buy what we didn’t include on the order form (kale, green onions, or carrots), or whatever we might have extra of.
By the way, when writing in the amount of an item you want in the survey, it makes tabulating easier if you just type a plain number, like “2″, not “2#”, or “two”.
For those of you who haven’t done this before, there are instructions below under the survey link. To get this order sheet as an email, just send us an email at bluemoonfarmurbana@gmail.com
Here’s how the whole thing works:
- You click on the survey link and answer the questions. You only have to answer the first two, which are your first and last name. Then you order what you want. When typing in the amount of a veggie that you want, just type a plain number, as opposed to spelling the number or adding any symbols. After you answer the questions, you click “Done”. That automatically saves your order. You have to fill it out by Wednesday night.
- Then you show up between 9-12 on Saturday at the delivery location, which is in the indoor eating area outside the Common Ground Food Co-op in Lincoln Square Mall. You get there by going out the back door of the Co-op, or entering the mall in the Health Alliance area, east side of the mall. There is no pre-pay, folks just pay when they pick up their veggies.
- Also, we don’t bag the order beforehand. When you get there, you find your name on one of the order clipboards, review your order and cross your name off. Then, using one of the scales, you can bag your veggies, trying to get the weight around what you ordered (it doesn’t have to be exact), and then bring your order to our scale, and we’ll figure out the price from there.
- We always bring some veggies, like kale or green onions, that are not included on the order list, because we don’t have enough of them to guarantee filling orders. They are available for purchase first-come, first served.
