UPDATE: LaFarmstand only accepting pre-orders for July 4 week

UPDATE: There will be no LaFarmstand Fri., July 5. Shoppers can still pre-order produce and pick it up outside RISC between 12-5 p.m. Fri., July 5.

Purchase student-grown, chemical-free vegetables, flowers, and herbs at a pay-what-you-wish rate. Pre-order online by 11:59 p.m. Thursday.

Due to earlier end-times for summer hours, pre-orders will be brought to campus and left in a cooler outside of the Office of Sustainability (RISC 203) at 12 p.m.  Just show up anytime after 12 p.m., find the bag with your name on it, and enjoy your produce! The cooler will be picked up at 5 p.m., and any unclaimed bags will be moved to the refrigerator in the office. Pre-orders are no longer picked up at the stand.

This week’s mixed produce basket ($20) includes: cucumbers, collard greens, “new” red potatoes, rainbow Swiss chard, scallions, and summer squash (yellow/green).
