JUMPOFF MOUNTAIN JAVA will be taking a break this week from the CFM, but rest assured, coffee will be available at the Piggly Wiggly and at Mooney’s. We’ll be back on next week as usual. Thanks to all the coffee lovers for your continued support of Jumpoff Mountain Java!

NEW DELIVERY DRIVER
As you all know, after 5 years, I am leaving my job as delivery driver for the CFM. Tuesday, Oct. 28, will be my last delivery. However, a new driver has come forward. Rachel Lynch has decided to take over deliveries, but two things will change.

First, customers will no longer see a delivery option on the CFM site. Instead, customers will notify Rachel directly and arrange for deliveries with her. Customers will also negotiate payment for delivery services with Rachel directly.
E-mail: radelo50@yahoo.com or phone 931-598-0774.

Second, since the driver cannot accept payments of any kind on behalf of the CFM, payment of all CFM orders MUST be made in advance of Tuesday’s delivery. Checks must be mailed in time to be posted to customer accounts before closing of market ordering on Monday. To ensure your account always has a positive balance, the CFM prefers payments in increments of at least $100.00. Mail checks made out to CFM to Kir Strobel, 744 Timberwood Trace, Monteagle, TN 37356.

Should at-home delivery not work for you, your second option is to leave your order at the Center to be picked up by you or a designée by 6 p.m. Wednesday. As with any left-behind order, there will be a $3.00 fee unless that order has been prepaid in full in advance. Don’t forget there is no freezer at the Center for the forseeable future, so it is imperative your items be picked up in a timely manner.

I have greatly enjoyed meeting and serving the CFM customers with at-home deliveries, and hope Rachel will, too.

Sincerely,
Linda

Don’t forget…
If you do not receive an order confirmation within 5 minutes, your order has NOT been placed in the system. E-MAIL OR CALL US to get the problem solved so you will not be disappointed on market day.

Please remember the market closes at 10 a.m. on Monday; therefore, your order must be completed and placed, and you should be signed out of the software.
