For Pick-up (no minimum purchase is required & free of charge)
When placing pick-up orders by E-MAIL or ONLINE.
As soon as your order has been seen, we will send you a confirmation notice by e-mail with an estimate as to when it will be ready (typically, within 24 hours after your order has been sent). When placing your order by email, we ask that you please be as specific as possible. For example, instead of simply writing "mixed greens", specifying quantity and what type of green is more helpful. This could look something like "1x leafy red or green lettuce" or "1x spicy salad mix". This will not only help us prepare your order more quickly, but will also ensure that we are getting you what you asked for!
Once your order has been prepared, we will then send you an e-mail that it is ready and waiting. This e-mail will also include the total amount and can be paid by e-transfer or in store (credit, debit, or cash). *Please wait to receive this confirmation before coming in. We cannot guarantee that if you come in before this confirmation is sent that it will be ready for pick-up.
When placing a pick-up order by PHONE .
Please call us during our opening hours if you wish to place your order by phone. We will do our best to take your order right away. Please be aware that if we have a large volume of customers in store at the time you are calling, we will schedule a call back with you to take your order. In this case, we will do so as soon as possible.
Curbside Pick-Up (option 1 of 2)
If you prefer not to come inside the store, we will gladly prepare your order and have it ready for you outside. Ideally, we ask that you give us an estimate as to when you will be arriving. This avoids leaving your order outside for unnecessary periods, which is especially useful on those hot summer days! *Curbside pick up must be paid by e-transfer prior to picking up your order. Any other payment would require you to come in store.
In person Pick-Up (option 2 of 2)
Your order will be prepped and kept waiting inside. To avoid waiting in a queue, it is ideal to pay for your order prior to coming in. If you prefer to pay in person that is also fine, but we cannot guarantee that there will not be some wait time. If you are unable to come by during our opening hours for your order, please contact us.
For Delivery (minimum order $100 before tax + $5 fee)
The minimum purchase required to have your order delivered is $100 and there is a $5 fee. We deliver once a week on Tuesdays. Please place your order the day before you would like it delivered (or earlier). *Exceptions made for "Special Circumstances" (see below).
When you place an order online using our website, the total amount given will be an estimate and you will not be required to pay right away to complete your order. Payment will be finalized once your order is complete. See below for more details on "How to pay for an order placed online".

How to pay for an order placed online
When you use our online system to place your order, the total amount is an estimate. This is because we need to weigh certain items in order to determine their price and is also why you will only be charged once your order is packed. Once your order is complete on our end (picked and packed), we will contact you with the total official amount. If you still wish to pay online after it is complete, we offer the option to send an e-transfer.
