Please offer more days for pick up of combo boxes. I really want to be a weekly customer, but can’t because your only days to pick up are when my husband is at work with our vehicle.
Misty, don’t tell anyone, but we can hold your box for 24 hours past the pickup date if that works better for you on a Thursday or Sunday pickup for these boxes. Please just let us know ahead of time in an email so we can accommodate.

Is the produce fresh or rescued?
Some product may be “rescued” if I understand what your getting at, but we guarantee everything to be fresh 🙂
