Hi. You placed an order for this week’s distribution. Thanks much.
Because July 4th is Wednesday, we moved our schedule forward two days. Everything that normally happens on Thursday will happen on Tuesday instead, with pick up times Tuesday being the same as our Thursday schedule.
NOTE: Our alternative pick up (for folks who can’t make Tuesday) will be on Thursday (July 5th) from 10:30 to noon at Franklin Avenue. Ames pick up will be Thursday as well (4:30-5:30 pm @ Wheatsfield Co-op).
We had 231 members order this cycle, and they bought from 81 different producers. Sales totaled a bit over $15,000, which is a respectable number considering how we changed up our schedule.
We are deeply appreciative of your purchases. Now it’s time to make it happen. Here’s some additional info regarding distribution this week.
1. If picking up at Franklin Plaza, check out products available for purchase in our Retail Center. There’s good stuff you can add to your online orders.
2. Specifics on locations for our sites are available with this link and to the left. Note that the days in this info have not been corrected for this week’s schedule.
NOTE: IF YOU ARRIVE BEFORE THE START TIME, OUR VOLUNTEERS WON’T BE READY. PLEASE PLAN ACCORDINGLY AND BE PATIENT.
3. We accept EBT cards for payment ONLY AT OUR Franklin Plaza site. If you are an EBT member and are picking up at another location, please send an email to distribution@iowafood.coop so we can arrange for processing your payment.
4. It’s a GOOD IDEA to check to be sure your pick-up site is correct. You can access your invoice by logging in, going to the shopping tab, and click “view in-process invoice”. If it’s not right, send an email to distribution@iowafood.coop.
Thanks. Looking forward to seeing folks later this week.
