Everything you need to know about FarmTab

FarmTab is a platform that connects local farms directly with customers. You can buy fresh food through one-time orders or subscribe to seasonal farm shares (CSAs), with pickup or delivery options depending on the farm.

No. FarmTab is not a grocery store or reseller. You are buying directly from local farms. Each farm manages its own products, pricing, and fulfillment. FarmTab is the platform that connects you.

FarmTab is available in regions where participating farms operate. Availability depends on your location and the farms near you. Use the farm map to see what's available in your area.

No. Many farms offer both one-time purchases and subscription-based CSA shares. You can choose whichever option fits your needs without any commitment required.

A CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) share is a recurring subscription where you receive a selection of seasonal food from a farm. You support the farm in advance and receive regular deliveries or pickups during the season. It's a great way to build a relationship with a specific farm while enjoying fresh, seasonal produce.

Some farms allow customization of CSA boxes or product selections, while others provide curated seasonal shares. Customization options depend entirely on the farm. You'll see what's available clearly during checkout.

In many cases, yes — but it depends on the farm's settings. Some farms allow skips, holds, or substitutions for CSA deliveries. Check your account settings or the farm's profile page for available options.

Yes. Orders can be scheduled up to 14 days in advance where the farm supports it.

Once your order is placed:

• The farm prepares your items
• You receive pickup or delivery instructions
• Your order is fulfilled directly by the farm
• CSA subscriptions continue based on the schedule you selected

You can track orders and manage your preferences through your account.

If something is missing or incorrect, you can contact the farm directly through your order details. FarmTab also provides support tools to help resolve issues when needed. Each farm manages their own fulfillment, so reaching out directly is usually the fastest path to a resolution.

Each farm sets its own fulfillment options:

• Pickup: You collect your order at a scheduled time and location set by the farm.
• Delivery: Your order is delivered to your home if the farm offers it.

All available options are shown clearly before checkout.
