Since we're getting a lot of the same questions by email, message, and phone, I thought I'd do a quick FAQ to save some time. Please read if you're planning on placing an order with us:
Q: Can I order now and pickup on a certain date or time?
A: Once you have notification that your order is ready it would be helpful to pickup your order as soon as you can. We have limited space and a lot of orders to fill. You may get a suggested time and date for pickup, this is only to give us time to pick your order. You will get a notification through text or email when your web order is ready. We have limited space so we cannot hold any plant material beyond a day or two maximum as they need to be watered.
Q: How do I order my seeds, plants etc..?
A: You order them online through https://www.birdhousegardenmarket.com/new-online-store.html#/. Our store is now open to the public.
Q: Can you take debit or Gift Cards on the online store?
A: Yes, Paypal allows you you use debit card or link directly to your bank account. You need to have a Paypal account for this to work. Gift Cards are only redeemable in store right now. We have a work around; bring your order to us with the gift card. Either print of your shopping cart or write down the item if you can't print and we can process the order in the store. There will be a wait to prepare your order, we will give you a pickup time when you drop it off.
Q: Are you doing contact-less pickups at the store?
A: Yes, when you get to the checkout for your online order, there are three options: by mail, in-town shipping (delivery), and no-contact pickup at the store. There could be about a couple of hours to a day wait (or more) for your order to be processed, and you will receive an email when it is ready.
Q: What is the process to pick up my order when it's ready?
A: When you get an email saying your order is ready for pickup, just come down to the store at 164 Hamilton River Road. If your order is all dry goods (no plants) it may be be on the table outside depending on the volume of pickups we are processing. You will see directions to go the the side of the store where someone can help you.
Q: Are your seed potatoes/ onion sets/ garlic bulbs etc... in?
A: Check in the ONLINE STORE for current availability. It changes daily along with our inventory. If you call or email us to ask, we will most likely send you a link or refer you to the web store anyway. We'll also post on Facebook sometimes as new items arrive. We aren't doing any pre-orders for these.
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work through all the orders coming in. As always our web store is open 24 hours a day.
