2024 FAYETTEVILLE DELIVERY SERVICE

In the past, our nonprofit partner Seeds that Feed graciously delivered online market orders to Fayetteville addresses. However, their funds for this service have run out. Therefore we added delivery service as an item, to help their volunteers cover the expenses of delivery to Fayetteville addresses.

Delivery will still be FREE for the following Fayetteville customers:
-SNAP customers
-customers 70 or older
-customers who are not able to drive to pickup location on Thursday
—customers who already donate each time they receive a delivery

If you are a customer in any of the above categories, please put “Free Delivery” in the comments as you finish ordering.

NOTE: DELIVERY ORDERS (PAID AND FREE) MUST FORWARD THE ORDER EMAIL TO delivery@seedsfeed.org AFTER YOUR ORDER IS COMPLETE. That insures that you are on the delivery list. Thank you.

If you request delivery and you are not in the above categories, please choose delivery service as one of your items when you order. You can find this item under Delivery and the cost will be no more than $7 for each delivery date. This service will be charged to your order. We make sure that Seeds that Feed receives all of those fees.

INFO YOU ALREADY KNOW IF YOU HAVE ORDERED BEFORE:

DRIVEBY PICKUP TIME AT THE LIBRARY OUTDOOR PARKING LOT is THURSDAY afternoon from 4:30-5:30. Note: if you already know that you cannot make it by 5:30 pm Thursday and you want to order this week, just reply to this email or text 479-935-5111 and we will work with you on a plan.

SEARCHING TIP: On large categories such as baked goods or meats click on the category to get a drop down of specific items in that category.

HOW TO CHECK ITEMS FROM A PARTICULAR SELLER: Scroll down on left side until you see “show specific growers”. If all the boxes are checked, you can click on “reverse all” then click the boxes on or off of those sellers you want to see. Then click “show specific growers” again.

BUYING TIP: If you see items that you want but not much available, order and pay and then log back in and continue shopping. Your orders will be combined and you will only be charged once.

SNAP CUSTOMERS ONLY: you may choose pay at pickup and bring your EBT card on Thursday. We will swipe your card and match up to $100 of your order. NOTE: please do not bring tokens or match cards to pickup at the online market.

NOTE: New customers and new orders always welcome—no minimum order required, no weekly order required.

TIPS:

1) Sellers sometimes add more products later in the ordering period, so be sure to check back. The product list changes each week, even from the same seller, so it’s worth exploring the categories you are interested in.

2) Multiple orders from you at different times will be automatically combined into one order before pickup and you will only be charged once.

PICKUP LOCATION:
The OUTDOOR parking area at the south end of the new part of the Fayetteville Public Library. Follow the line of cars towards the building and stay in your car in line while we get your order.

Foothills Market:  The Market is Open!


The vegetable offerings on Foothills Market may seem unusually small this week, but it’s a temporary thing. Jeff from Happy Horseshoe Farm is traveling today and hasn’t had a chance to see how much is available. When he gets home later today, he’ll update the market, so please give us until this evening.

In the meantime, we have a couple of new offerings on the market – garlic scapes and new onions. If you’ve never cooked with garlic scapes, don’t worry – they have the same wonderful aroma and flavor as garlic bulbs and can be used in the same ways in recipes.

The market is open until Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., and we’ll have pickup on Thursday afternoon. Sorry about the inconvenience of having to wait a few more hours for our complete offerings, and thank you for your patience!

Berea Gardens:  Market Ordering Open


Good Morning,

Beautiful day for working, so I am sending this out a little early. Beautiful produce this week and we will have lots of eggs and muffins on the table, too. We will also be welcoming a new vendor, Calista Emerton, who will have cheddar chive biscuits, garlic herb bread, milk honey bread rolls, cardamom braid bread, mini apple pies, and cruffins.

The rest of our regular vendors will also be here.

See you Wednesday,

Bob& Lynnita
