How to go about picking up your share? It’s important to get it right so that all members get their fair share. Check the Pickup Etiquette (PDF document).
Some key points to remember:
1. Don’t park illegally: please respect our neighbors’ parking areas (plus tickets are $$$).
2. Remember to sign-in on the sign-in sheet to indicate that you have picked up your share.
3. Read the labels: don’t take more or less than your share and make sure you don’t take two items when there is a choice of one item or the other.
4. Don’t handle the produce. We handle it as little as possible to keep it clean and prevent it from bruising. Just look, pick and move to the next crate. If an item is obviously spoiled, don’t put it back, give it a volunteer behind the tables.
5. If you don’t like a particular item, either trade it in the trading basket or leave it in the surplus basket. Don’t leave it in the pickup crates. When you trade, trade portion for portion, not item for item.
