Naples,FL: Sales tax info and on line payment
State is cracking down in some areas and I will have to charge sales tax. I also need to know if I should go to online payment.
It will be one or the other so majority will rule. If you would like to be able to pay with credit card at time of your order or continue with correct amount of cash at pick up. Please email me your preference
Sales tax will add 7% and online payment will be an additional 3%. I will make changes for the first Tuesday in June.

Dawson Local Harvest: The DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST
The Dawson Local Harvest Update for May 25, 2014
HEY EVERYONE! We are getting close to having a whole lot of wonderful Produce available. First of all we have a new grower, BRADLEY’S FARM, which is in the process of getting their CNG certification. They’ll be adding several new items to the Produce section soon. Secondly, LEILANI’S GARDENS has picked their first ripe Tomatoes of the season. At the moment quantities are limited, so please be respectful of others and don’t order all of them for yourself (I know it’s tempting!). FIVE HENS FARMS is also expanding their offerings of fresh pork (I’m not vegetarian and the Bacon is sounding quite good to me!). Be sure to check out “the Market” for the new products for this week.
The Harvest is adding a new vendor, Barbara Roberts with HEALING HANDS, author of a great “natural foods” Cookbook called “Alive Health: Healthy Eating On The Run”. This is a cookbook that’s perfect for the all-natural locavoe with lots of vegetarian and vegan selections that actually taste good, so I asked her to list with the Harvest. The cookbook has wonderful recipes for some of the unusual and esoteric vegetables that are offered on this site. We’re delighted to start off our Recipes section with her scrumptious “Marinated Kale” recipe!
REMEMBER! You can order until Tuesday night at 8pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.
You’ll find the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST at http://dawsonville.locallygrown.net
We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible!
