Pricey Members of the Farm,
We need to clarify and hopefully clear some issues up concerning the mushrooms.
That is the primary time we are attempting provide mushrooms to our members. We thought this may be one thing new and thrilling to attempt, and to make accessible to all of our members. The mushroom provide is obtainable to ALL CSA members, no matter subscribing to a fruit share or not. That is what we take into account and add-on.
The primary publish on the weblog and within the publication was a survey to gauge curiosity. We didn’t plan on utilizing that suggestions as precise orders – each in case folks modified their minds or if we had been unable to safe mushrooms. We didn’t imply to confuse or frustrate anybody or trigger a misunderstanding.
We had been below the impression we had been to take orders up till this week and ship in our numbers this weekend. Then that quantity can be planted and prepared for harvest in September. Issues modified quite shortly this week after we acquired a name from the seller on Tuesday. They’ve a certain quantity prepared to reap this weekend that will probably be delivered to us subsequent week. We by no means noticed that coming!
The seller does have a minimal and a most they may ship to us. So many issues are up within the air (which is regular for farmers). We have no idea when the deliveries will probably be nor do we all know what number of kilos they are going to be harvesting and sending to us. There additionally could possibly be completely different varieties (aside from lion’s mane) which will come, together with completely different costs. We are going to presumably have 1, 2, and even 3 extra deliveries up till October.
Certainly one of our priorities is to attempt to ensure everybody that desires mushrooms will obtain them no less than 1 time. For our 2nd supply, we need to fill as many orders as attainable that won’t obtain mushrooms with the first supply. Then we’ll fill reccurring orders. It is a lot of organizing and making an attempt to maintain straight on our finish. We imagine there’s a pretty excessive probability for everybody that places in an order for mushrooms to obtain some no less than one time. We are going to solely invoice you as we all know your order will probably be stuffed. If you wish to ship a cost, we’ll cling on to your examine till we all know you’re on the record for the subsequent supply. The workplace (Linda) will attempt our greatest to electronic mail you as you’re to obtain mushrooms.
Thanks on your endurance with us concerning the mushrooms. We are attempting and can do our greatest to tell you all, as we discover issues out as we go.
