Vacations and missed baskets

What to do when you can’t come pickup your basket at the usual place and time?

If you are not able to come get your basket at the planned hour and location, you have 3 options.

 

 

1. Send someone to pick up the basket for you

 

  • It can be anybody, you don’t even need to tell us in advance.
  • They come to the delivery point and tell us the first and last names of your basket registration.
  • They can come pick up the basket and bring it back to you, or they can keep it for themselves (it’s a really nice gift!).
  •  

     

     

    2. Pick up the basket the next day at the farm

    • Baskets that are not picked-up on the night of the delivery are pre-boxed and kept at the farm for ONE DAY.
    • Come to the farm (1035 chemin St-Dominique, les Cèdres), on the day following your delivery before 8pm. No need to warn us in advance.
    • The baskets will be pre-made in boxes and placed in a our self-serve fridge, just outside of the barn.  Please bring your own bags, transfer the vegetables, and leave us the box.
    • If you do not pick-up the vegetables on the day following your drop-off, we will donate them to the food bank

     

     

    3. Use online calendar to change date/location or get credit.
