135-Update on Delivery Service

Five Feline Farm continues to thrive and grow! As we have announced in previous podcasts and social media, we are now doing deliveries in the Charleston, IL area.

The delivery schedule is between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM on Saturdays. You can order online and choose the checkout option “delivery” to get on the schedule. If you would like to take a Friday drive out to the Farm, you can also choose “pick up” and a time. We’ll have your order ready on Friday when you choose that option.

Thank you to everyone who is learning our new systems along with us. We have the best customers!

Keep coming back, it’s going to get interesting.

Until next time….

134-Growth At The Farm

On this podcast episode, you will hear us discuss the end of our run at the 18th Street Farmer’s Market and the beginning of our new plans. We are still planning for the farm business and ready to take our next steps in growth.

The first of those changes also started this past weekend when we began delivery of Gert’s Garden 2 Go © to Charleston, IL addresses. This new service is somewhat of a cross between a CSA and a farmer’s market on wheels. You order the size, we fill the order with a fresh selection of produce straight from the garden AND deliver to your door.

Curbside and pick up are still available at the Farm most Fridays.

Keep watch on our social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) and online store (fivefelinefarm.com/mercantile) for updates. If you would like information, like podcasts, news, and blog posts delivered to your email inbox, you can sign up here. (As a special bonus, you receive an ebook Wisdom of the Honeybees).

There is a lot going on at Five Feline Farm. Don’t miss out!

Until next time….

133-Introducing Gert’s Garden 2 Go

On today’s podcast we share the news of the week here at Five Feline Farm and introduce our new delivery service for Charleston, IL customers.

We have also decided that August 1, 2020 will be our last farmer’s market. Our business is moving in a new direction which will allow us to grow and increase accessibility for our customers. We appreciate our time at the 18th Street Farmer’s Market, but it is time for us to change. Without change, there can be no growth.

Gert’s Garden 2 Go will include pre-selected boxes of produce at $10, $15 and $20 levels. You can also add other items from our store and we will deliver to your door. Or, if you would like to make a short drive to the country, you can arrange for pick up here at the Farm. Simply indicate at checkout “delivery” or “pick up”.

If you need assistance with our online ordering system, please call 217-345-7331 or email store.support@fivefelinefarm.com.

The Mercantile will continue to be open on Fridays from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. We will also be open on Saturdays beginning August 8, 2020. Hours on Saturday will also be 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Until next time….

132-Summer Vegies At The Farm

Summer is upon us and that means great food from the garden. We are eating and selling sweet corn, eggplant, peppers, potatoes, green beans and tomatoes. Well, soon we will be selling tomatoes.

In this episode you will hear about the current harvest and how we eat some of that harvest.

We are also excited to announce our new delivery service to Charleston, IL. If you are unable to make it out to the farm or to the farmer’s market, check out our website, place an order and we will deliver to you on Saturday afternoon. There may be a few bumps along the way as we work out the details, but our desire is to be inclusive and get great products to everyone.

Stay current with our social media: Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

You can also sign up for our email list to get info delivered straight to your inbox. (You will also get a free thank you ebook.)
