137-Checking Our Priorities

Sometimes things come along in life that make you think.

Think about life. And priorities.

This past week was one of those times for us. Losing a family member is never easy and when it happens suddenly, well, it makes you think more about how you spend your own days.

In this episode we talk a bit about that and how we are applying lessons to our business.

Thank you everyone who sent messages of support and offers of help.

Until next time,

Donna, Julia and the Felines

P.S. We still hope to move forward with the Fall Festival on October 10, 2020 with safety in mind. If you have ideas or suggestions, please send those along.

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….
