Dear NOOOBYers,
A few changes are being instigated this month, as we are finding that by allowing late orders we haven't enough time to get the orders together fully and for them to be complete. We are also running into cash flow problems with goods not being paid for in advance. So in lieu of all that the changes are as follows.
ALL orders must be in by Wed 27th June, that's including people who come down in person to pay by cash at the NOOOOBY meeting (8pm, The Lifeflow Centre, Newbridge) AND people who order and pay online via the credit union account (info on how to set this up, attached). This means we then have 2 weeks to get the order together and especially make sure we can get all the local food orders in properly, as these take time between chatting with producers, arranging pick up/drop off etc. for pick up on the 2nd WEDNESDAY in JULY - that's goods pick up/shop night - WED 11TH JULY.
There were no veg boxes this month as the growers are having the hungry gap period extended due to bad weather, no one had veg ready for harvest yet, but they all say they should be good to go next month, so the veg boxes will be back into full swing for July's order(that's this one!).
Again if anyone has some free time we always appreciate some help on shop night - the next one being WEDNESDAY 11th July - we are all volunteers doing this for the love of food!
To conclude - NO orders will be accepted after WED 27th JUNE. new rule folks!
Happy rain!
