Please read the following general information and the specific information for your pickup site (you will find that information listed below) so that you know when, where and how to pick up your CSA share this season.
PICKING UP YOUR CSA SHARE
Bring Your Own Bags and Boxes: Please do not take our green CSA bins home with you.
Review the Order Sheet: Ensure you pick up the correct items. Check the order sheet and only take what is listed under your name. Produce, chicken, maple, and bread shares are unlabeled and identical, so you can choose any item from those categories. If there is an error, email the farm but do not take items unless your name is listed for them.
Wipe Out and Spray Your Box: Wipe out your box into the 5-gallon bucket and lightly spray the inside with the provided sanitizing spray at each site.
Stack Your Empty Box: Stack your empty box, lid-open, with the other empty boxes. If you are the first to pick up, start the stack.
Produce Shares: CSA boxes are identical. Take any box for your share and unpack it into your own bags or boxes.
Fruit Shares: Fruit shares start in mid to late July. Check the note at the pickup site for the amount of fruit to take each week (generally one bag per share).
Bread Shares: Find bread shares in the bin labeled “bread.” There will be no bread shares delivered on 7/31 and 8/7 due to Starter Bread's summer break.
Chicken Shares: Find your chicken share in the cooler labeled “chicken.”
Maple Shares: Find your maple share in the box or cooler labeled “maple.”
Mushroom Shares: Order mushroom shares directly from Cloud Cap Mushrooms. The farm only delivers these shares and does not process orders or payments. Mushroom shares are labeled with the shareholder's name but not listed on the weekly delivery list.
FULL, HALF, AND QUARTER SHARES:
Full Shares: Start June 5th and are picked up every Wednesday for the 24-week CSA.
Half Shares: Start either June 5th or 12th and are picked up every other Wednesday for a total of 12 shares.
Quarter Shares: Start June 5th, 12th, 19th, or 27th and are picked up every 4 weeks, totaling 6 shares. If you have signed up for both half and quarter shares, your quarter share pickup will coincide with one of your half share pickups. See the pickup sheets emailed out each week and available at the pickup site on CSA days to confirm when your quarter share begins.
GENERAL CSA PICKUP ETIQUETTE:
No Trash or Unwanted Produce: Please do not leave trash or unwanted produce at the pickup site.
Pets: If you brought a dog or other pet, please leave them in your car or tied up away from the pickup site.
Do Not Disturb Hosts: Please do not knock on the door, windows, or otherwise bother the folks hosting the pickup sites. For immediate issues, email the farm at csa@flyingcoyotefarm.com.
MISSED PICKUP POLICY:
Arrange a Pickup: You are welcome to have a friend or family member pick up your share if you are out of town. You DO NOT need to let us know if someone else will pick up your share. Ensure they know how to find your share and understand the pickup site operations.
Notify in Advance: If you know you will miss a pickup day and have no one to pick it up for you, please let us know one week in advance so we don’t harvest and pack your share that week.
Make-Up Share: Each member can receive one make-up CSA share for one missed share with notice. Notify the farm the week before your missed share by emailing your name and pickup site. Indicate the date you would like to make up your missed share.
CSA NEWSLETTER:
Every Wednesday, we will email you a CSA newsletter detailing what’s in your share. The newsletter will also include farm updates, recipes, and storage tips for your veggies. Add flyingcoyotefarm@gmail.com and csa@flyingcoyotefarm.com to your contact list to prevent emails from going to your spam folder.
MEMBER BENEFITS:
As a thank you for joining our CSA, you will receive 10% off any purchases from our Hollywood Farmers Market booth throughout the season. We are at the market on Saturdays from 8 AM-1 PM. Stop by and say hello if you need more veggies, chicken, maple, or sauerkraut. We accept EBT, debit, credit, cash, and checks at the market.
