At each delivery site there is an "extras box" to make sure that vegetables don't go to waste. Here is where the farmers, and Spring Hill members, put their surplus vegetables, like those that exceed the share amounts. If you find vegetables in your bag that you'd rather not eat, or that are too many to eat, put them in the extras box. And if you see a vegetable or two in the extras box that you know you will eat, take it with you! Our newsletters should give you lots of ideas on how to cook and serve your "extras."

Later in the season, some vegetables will be "on the side" but not part of the extras box. Here, you'll see a sign suggesting how many of the veggies each member can take to make sure there's enough for everyone.
