FCLO has been ordered

FCLO and other Green Pasture products have been ordered and have shipped. We saved over $1,500 as a group! That’s group buying power at it’s finest. The items will be available by the Jan 28th pick up. If it comes sooner I’ll let you know.

If you missed the sale order, we will have another group order on Feb 21st and you can still get a great deal with the group buyer discount.

Don’t forget to add $0.25 to your Dwolla deposit

Dwolla charges me $0.25 per deposit. I will charge this fee back to you. It may seem like a little amount but I assure you it adds up quickly on my end with the number of orders that occur weekly. If your deposit is less than $10 there is no fee. Please make sure your deposit includes the 25 cents fee. For example, if your order total is $22.50 make your deposit for $22.75.

You will see 2 confirmation emails from me- 1 confirming your deposit and 1 to charge the Dwolla fee if applicable.

*Please make your Dwolla deposit the same day you place your order.

Below is are some detail instructions on how to deposit funds and what I need from you to make the process go smoothly. I want to make it affordable payment option for members but not a bookkeeping mess for me.

If you are paying by Dwolla make sure to leave a note in Comments Section of your order that you are paying via Dwolla. This is a flag for me to check my Dwolla account to see if you’ve made a deposit.

How to pay via Dwolla:

1. Go to top of The Market page
2. Click $ inside the orange Dwolla box
3. Type in amount you want to deposit
4. Click arrow button to submit (this will take you to Dwolla’s website)
5. Sign in to Dwolla and click Check Out
You will receive a confirmation email from Dwolla that your payment has been initiated to me.

I will charge your account $0.25 once I receive the notification that you have deposited funds. For deposits under $10 there is no fee.

In addition to Dwolla, you can also pay via credit card via the market site or cash/check on pick up day.
