Locavore Delivery - 7.09.2009

The last bit of the "June batch" of chickens will be processed on Friday, if all goes well. In which case I'll email folks that are still waiting for theirs to make arrangements - thanks for being patient! Keep in mind that each months batch will actually be the last week of the month.

We have cherries this week! They came directly from a farmer out in eastern Washington - they're big and juicy - I've a dehydrator full so far! ~S

Remember that in an effort to be more efficient, and less wasteful, we do not write individual receipts, but instead keep a book. If you specifically want a receipt, please let us know when you place your order, if possible.

Anyone and everyone can order from our deliveries, not just "subscribers"! To any newcomers on the e-list, welcome! Also rest assured that all farms contributing to our deliveries all meet several standards: chemical-free, sustainable, natural, family farming... If you have questions about any of them, don't hesitate to ask, or check them out yourself!

To order, click here and specify what you would like.
All checks go to "Dee Creek Farm", or bring cash.
**BRING YOUR OWN BAG**
We fill pre-orders first, then it’s first come, first served!
We do mostly pre-orders at deliveries, rather than Farmers Market style.
Please help us in this by pre-ordering what you can!
