    YOUR DEADLINE TO ORDER FROM GERALDSON COMMUNITY FARM (GCF) IS TUESDAY 6PM
    We are required to place our order with GCF early Wednesday morning so PLEASE ORDER your produce from Geraldson Community Farm by Tuesday, 6:00 PM at which time their produce will be taken off the Market for the week. If you don’t want to place your entire order right away, you can always come back and place a separate order with other Growers before Wednesday noon when the Market closes. Thank you for working with us on this requirement.

    WELCOME TO OUR NEWEST CUSTOMERS! Once you have submitted your order, if in doubt about what you owe, you can always confirm what you have been charged for by checking your account history and viewing your most current invoice. Instructions on how to do that are on our Q&A page under the question entitled Since you don’t provide an invoice with delivery, how do I know what I owe? . Also, since your vegetables are picked fresh within 24 hours of delivery, they should be lasting for WEEKS in your refrigerator. When you accept delivery, please take a few minutes to inspect your order to protect your vegetables from unnecessary spoilage. Lastly, it is imperative that you understand our policy on Unclaimed Orders found on our Q&A page. When you make a purchase you are agreeing to abide by this policy.
