Winter Farmers’ Market – Updates to Curbside Service

As you may know, the Brattleboro Winter Farmers’ Market is currently 100% online pre-orders for Curbside Pick up. To effectively manage the volume of orders and items that our market producers need to make, bake, pick, pack and label for your Saturday Pick up, and so our Curbside Team can better serve you at pick up time, we are making a few changes:

1. Market orders will close at 9 AM on Thursday starting this week.  This will be especially helpful as we have two Friday holidays in a row coming up! So shop early!

2. We have added A Pick-up Time Slot as a NO cost item listing 1/2 hour options from 10:30 to 1:00.  We ask each customer to please select one as you begin your order.  This scheduling will help us spread customer traffic flow across our pick-up window which will help our Curbside Team. Your PICK UP TIME SLOT will be listed on the order confirmation that you receive by email once you check out.
Also, our Pick up Window will now extend from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM on Saturdays.

3. And we will begin opening for online orders on Monday.  The current order window is already open for this coming Saturday, 12/19.

4. And just a reminder to help our Curbside Team – PLEASE HAVE A SIGN WITH YOUR LAST NAME THAT CAN BE READ FROM A DISTANCE

And as usual, you’ll find your weekly provisions like greens, garlic, eggs, meat, and bread, special treats, handmade soaps and lovely handcrafted gifts of pottery, jewelry and lovingly created whimsical cards.

As always, we accept Credit, Debit & EBT cards.  Through December, EBT Shoppers can turn $10 into $40 each week with Crop Cash and our own Food Boost. Gift Certificates are also available.  Find out a little more about how all this online ordering works at our website -www.BrattleboroWinterFarmersMarket.org.  Or start your shopping now at our online store.

Our farmers, bakers and makers are counting on you to join us all on this journey and see that while the shopping experience is different, you still go home from your curbside pick up with all the same wonderful local goods you are used to!

We are so grateful to those of you who have already joined us on this uncharted market journey, and have been heartened at the continued community support and dedication to our producers and our market.

Keep your masks up, stay safe, be well…and together we will get through this COVID19 challenge.

Thanks on behalf of our vendors, staff and volunteers,

Sherry
