At any time in the shopping process items available for purchase can be viewed by clicking on an item type in the menu on left side of the page. In the list of items shown enter the quantity of each item that you would like to order. Some items, such as meats, may come prepackaged with predetermined package weights. In these instances you will not be able to type in an order quantity but will be able to select a predetermined package weight from a dropdown menu. When you are finished shopping for items on any one page click on the "ADD TO BASKET" button on the bottom of the page. You will be directed to your basket contents. You can then click on the item type menu on the left side of the page to continue shopping. Note: You must click on the "ADD TO BASKET" button on the bottom of the page for the quantities selected to be added to the basket. If you click on another item type in the item type menu before clicking on "ADD TO BASKET" your order quantities will not be added to your basket. When you have finished making your selections click on the "CHECKOUT" button at the bottom of the page. If you have not already logged in you will be asked to log in before you can proceed to checkout.
Each market establishes how they would like to handle payments for orders. Some markets require payment at time of purchase, some markets require payment at time of order using PayPal or a credit card, and some markets allow either payment at pick up or at time of order. After you select your products to purchase you will proceed to checkout. During the checkout process you will be notified about your payment options and if more than one option is available you will be asked to select your preferred method of payment.
When you view available products a box above the product list will show a link to "Additional Pick Up Information". Click on this link to view the pick up location for your order. Some markets have more than one pick up location. If your market has more than one pick up location you will be asked to select a pick up location during the checkout process.
When you view available products a box above the product list will indicate the pick up date for your order. The box will also show a link to "Additional Pick Up Information". Click on this link to view the order pick up time and any other information related to picking up your order. If your market has more than one pick up location there may be a different pick up time for each pick up location. If your market has more than one pick up location you will be asked to select a pick up location during the checkout process. Your pick up time will correlate with the pick up location selected.
Split items are items available to the market in wholesale quantities only. However, the wholesale quantity can be "split" by a number of buyers. If exactly the entire wholesale quantity is ordered then each buyer will get the amount they ordered. If more or less than the exact wholesale quantity is ordered then the amount each buyer will actually get may be different than the amount the buyer ordered. When you hover on the order quantity box for a split item, shown with a green background, a popup will appear with the following information: Order Qty: Enter what portion of the total quantity you want to order + : Enter any additional amount you are willing to take. - : Enter any lesser amount you are willing to take. Additional information about the split may also be shown. Split Information: Split status (Filled or Unfilled), split size, and amount remaining to fill the split. Split Participants: Who is currently participating in the split and the quantity each participant has ordered. Note: By default the splits participant name is "Private." In order for the participant's actual name to appear the participant must set "Splits Privacy" to off in their "My Profile" page. Because ordered split item quantities may not actually be delivered unless the entire wholesale quantity is sold, at the end of the order cycle the market manager will make a determination as to what quantity of the item ordered will actually be delivered and will notify the buyer.

COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS
We distribute local food and farm products to customers with as little contact as possible--straight from the farm to our delivery person to your vehicle or doorstep. We require masks and social distancing, and we provide hand sanitizer.
We assemble and distribute orders on Fridays, in the small parking lot across Front St. from the Better Living Center. We intend to continue to operate out of this parking lot throughout the winter of 20-21 but may move to the Grange hall on occasion if weather is too forbidding.
Orders can be picked up at one of our pick-up locations or delivered.
You do not need to be there when we deliver. Just leave your payment by the door (or you can pay in advance).
