We are happy to announce that beginning, Monday, August 10th, ICF pick-your-own (PYO) is now open during regular pickup hours.  When you come to Intervale Community Farm during your assigned Monday and Thursday time slot you may now pick your flowers, herbs, beans, etc., at the same time.

Please adhere to the following:

1.     If you are sick, have a cough, fever, shortness of breath, loss of taste or smell, other symptoms common to COVID-19, or contact with someone Covid-19 positive, do not come to Intervale Community Farm.

2.     Consider continuing to harvest your PYO outside of the Monday and Thursday 2:00-6:30 pm windows.  If you’ve enjoyed having the fields to yourself, reveling in the cool of the morning, puttering around ICF as relaxed weekend activity, or delighting in the quiet evening sunsets, those pleasures can still be yours!  ICF is always open for PYO and if you come during non-pickup hours you will help keep our numbers lower at ICF.

3.     Continue to observe your selected pick-up time slot.  Please gather your share from the tables during your assigned window.

4.     Wear a mask when harvesting PYO crops during pickup times, due to the number of people at ICF during the 2:00-6:30 windows on Mondays and Thursdays and the Vermont Face Mask Order effective 8/1/2020.

5.     Mind your parking lot behavior.  With more cars in the lot, everyone will need to stay within the lines and park close together to provide enough space for our expected number of cars.

6.     Wash your hands thoroughly before doing PYO.  Handwashing sinks and sanitizer stations are in place near the pole barn.

7.     Even though you will see more people you know during pickup hours, minimize the time you spend socializing with others.  If you want a relaxed PYO and conversation date with a friend, please come outside of pickup hours.

8.     No eating or drinking while gathering your produce.

9.     No pets.  Please leave your dogs and other furry friends at home.

10.  Remember your own clippers or scissors for cutting flowers.
