Gorgeous greens for your healthy household. The famous ARTfarm sweet salad mix is ready for you, along with mangoes, beautiful dragonfruit and a few herbs… Once again for your safety and ours, because the delta variant is more spreadable than Duke’s mayonnaise, we have returned to our pandemic preorders with scheduled customer pickup timeslots this week to keep crowds of more than ten customers from forming. Because we love you! And the hospital is full! Spread yourselves out!!
Summer salad greens at ARTfarm. A miracle in the desert, basically.
Click the link at the bottom to reserve your pickup time and items, and check for your confirmation email before hitting the road… Please wear your mask and keep plenty of social distance at pickup!
We’ve got Luca’s late night lettuce again. Saturday morning at 11am we’ll start distributions for 40 customers with summer bounty: plentiful SALAD MIX!!! herbs, and tons of mangoes, including a variety of beautiful grafted mangoes from Farmer Dennis Nash’s orchards.
From ARTfarm we will have Nam doc Mai and Haitian Kidney mangoes, a few pomegranates, and a couple dozen dragonfruit. Herbs list: garlic chives, kaffir leaves, lemongrass, white/mango/super turmeric, pineapple slips and farm fresh eggs by the dozen from Mongoose&Zinnia: that’s right, those tiny fluffballs that arrived at the PO Box in February were carefully raised and are now happy pastured chickens lining the small nest of our kid’s college fund.
We’ve also got lots of beautiful fresh turmerics to add to your dishes and smoothies and health tonics; to make golden milk (great with non-dairy milks too); grate into dishes and add gorgeous color and flavor plus health benefits to sauces.

Please contact us immediately by text and phone at (340)514-4873 if you have reserved a farmshare and cannot pick it up. Supply is limited, demand is extremely high and someone else will gladly purchase your share, if given enough time to respond. We have limited time for distributions and they are scheduled. Our produce is harvested fresh and needs to go home with you same day. This is an honor system since we are not collecting payment until pickup. We do not have cold storage for uncollected shares.
The signup form will show you a “Thank You” page and send you a confirmation email if submitted successfully. If you don’t find it, please check your spam/junk, inbox tabs, and ‘all mail’ folders for the confirmation email, as this has been a common problem for several customers and with a little searching they typically find it. For more tips, visit our Help page.

Q: I can’t seem to order more than one item.
A: We have designed our order form not to allow any one customer to purchase all of one extra. Sharing is caring. If you’d like extra of something (beyond what you could reserve through our order system), put it in the comments with your order, and remind us at your pickup time: if we can supply it to you we’ll do our best. If you are in the food service industry and looking for bulk availability, please contact us; our order form is for individuals and families to place a single order for a scheduled pickup.
Q: My order isn’t going through.
- if the automated confirmation email is not immediately found, check your spam folder and the ‘all mail’ folder
- make sure all required fields are filled/selected
- just try again
- use a cellular device (smartphone or tablet) that isn’t using WiFi internet
- restart your browser/device
- clear your cache and cookies in your browser/device
- reboot your router (unplug it for a minute and plug in again)
- visit our “help” page for additional tips
Q: The form says I didn’t enter my email, but I did.
Our pre-order form requires everyone to type their email in twice, and makes sure the two match exactly. We had a lot of customers in such a rush to get their order in that they’d spell their own email incorrectly and then complain that they could not find the confirmation email. Our ‘type it in twice’ system ensures that you’ll find any email mistakes before you submit the pre-order form.
Q: I ordered before, but I’m not getting your emails.
Our pre-order form does NOT automatically sign you up for an ARTfarm email subscription. Do that HERE!

You have the correct address. I just checked and we do have your order in the database. Recently all of our customers who signed up using a yahoo account have had your same problem. It is likely the email was sent but Yahoo has decided it is spam or has placed it into a new folder for you. Try this advice to find your missing email from the https://artfarmllc.com/preorders/ page on our website:
“…all the advice we have to give on the topic is below, so you’re better off saving time by just following these steps:
