May 3 2020 Pick Up Market
Sign up for a pick up time here (link).
Here's this week's list of vendors and how you can order. Are you using SNAP benefits or do you know someone who wants to use their benefits? Double Up Food Bucks matches SNAP benefits with vouchers to use for the purchase of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and plants that grow food. That's right, if you want to buy any start that produces food, you can use your SNAP benefit and DUFB vouchers. Contact the vendor and let them know you wish to use SNAP. Also contact me (link). I will have our card machine available. We won't be handing out the actual vouchers. We will apply Double Up Food Bucks as appropriate to your purchase.
While it took longer than I wanted, our online ordering platform is open. We are conducting a soft opening for the platform this week. Register as a customer here (link). The ordering period will begin on Tuesdays at 4:00 PM and close at 11:59 PM on Thursday. You can order nursery stock from Garden Color, hummus, pitas, and more from Hummus Stop, cocoa products from Momo Cocoa, and eggs, meats, vegetables, soaps and more from Naked Acres Farm on our ordering site this week. We'll add more vendors in the coming weeks.
Pick up hours will be 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. Sign up for a pick up time here (link). (This one works, I promise!) PLEASE be sure to sign up. With over 200 households coming through in 3 hours, scheduling pick up times is the only way to keep everyone sane. We want to minimize contact so you will drive into the market site and stop in front of the vendor (or vendors) you ordered from. They will load your car. If you come by bicycle, use the same procedure. Please enter from SW Vermont St whether you are driving, cycling or walking. We want to minimize contact so you will drive into the market site and stop in front of the vendor (or vendors) you ordered from. They will load your car. If you come by bicycle or foot, use the same procedure. Assistant Manager Azul Tellez Wright is the market's Safe Social Distance Manager.
