TCC Basket List 9/26/14
Tri-Community Co-op Director
Hello!
A bit of business first…Our emails are currently sent using Google Groups, with which we have had countless problems over the years. Consequently, I am officially changing our mailing list over to Shutterfly and will be working out the kinks over the next few weeks. Hopefully, you have already received an introductory email from Shutterfly. Just in case, I am sending this list today in two ways:
1. This email is coming through our Google Groups program. It is serving as a back-up, in case the new program doesn’t work as expected.
2. You should receive a similar email to this one through Shutterfly. If you do not receive the basket list email from Shutterfly, be sure to let Dave know on Friday morning, so we can get your address updated in our new system. (Dave is the man who takes your money =))
On to the basket… We have Fuji apples and lots of other fruit in our baskets this week - I tried to order more for our extras table as well. Our fall veggies are coming in, and so we have yams in the basket, with white potatoes available on the extras table. Also, I have moved the strawberries to the extras list until the temperatures cool down. We will also have eggplant and pomegranates on the extras table!
Sorry, there are no brussels sprouts available this week, but they should be back soon.
See you Friday!
REGULAR REMINDERS:
Please remember to bring a list for the extras table, if you are able to plan ahead. When people bring a pre-marked list, we are able to get the extras out a lot more efficiently! Thanks!
Eggs for sale: We have eggs available each week for $4.25/dozen. These need to be pre-ordered and pre-paid, so if you are interested, stop by the egg table on Friday!
Oils and vinegar for sale: We have Pacific Sun Olive Oil products for sale, as well as Bella Vado avocado oil. We also have refills for olive oil, lemon olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Be sure to bring a container for the vinegar ad also if you want a refill of olive oil. We also carry lip balms made from avocado oil (orange or peppermint) - it's fantastic!
***Reminder: if you don't pick up your own basket, please print out a copy of this list for the person who is getting your produce! You can cross out what you want traded in, and put a star next to anything on the extras list that you'd like included. I can't guarantee that you'll get everything you want, but the more stars you put, the better! If I don't see you on Friday mornings, please feel free to email me with any feedback you have about the baskets!
I look forward to seeing you all this Friday morning at the Wrightwood Community Center, 9-10:30am!
