Support Local Farmers. Easy Online ordering. One convenient Pickup!
Connecting Local Farmers to Local Families
Our farmers give us updates on inventory that we post for members to order.
Your order is sent, farmers deliver our bulk order all at once. No marketing. No guessing. No waste.
We sort each farm's deliveries into your order.
On Pick up day, pick up your goods. Everything you need from several local farms, all in one convenient pick up!
Your Membership Supports Foodstead Connecting Local Farms to Local Families!
Regular price: $150/year
Foodstead is a member-owned buying club that connects local families with local farms. Instead of shopping from multiple farms individually, you can order everything in one place and pick it up at one convenient location.
Join Foodstead to access our private online marketplace. Once you make an account and become a member, you’ll have access to products from all of our participating farms and producers. Create an Account here! Already have an account? Purchase your membership here!
Ordering is open every other Thursday through Saturday.
Browse what’s available that week, add what you’d like to your cart, and submit your order before ordering closes on Saturday night.
Because you’re buying directly from local producers, inventory changes with the seasons. Some products are available year-round, while others are only available when they’re in season. See what’s available here!
After ordering closes, each farm harvests, bakes, prepares, or packages exactly what was ordered. Nothing sits in a warehouse waiting to be sold. Your food is gathered fresh from the farms that week.
(These could change pending future member surveys.)
Pick up your order at:
Possum Hollow Farm Store
822 Pleasant Dr.
Shelby, NC 28152
Pickup times are 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM on the following Thursday and Friday after ordering.
Simply stop by during pickup hours, grab your order, and head home with fresh food from local farms.
**Pickup is also available at Foodstead or by special arrangement. Please contact us to schedule an alternate pickup.**
Foodstead makes buying local simple.
Instead of driving all over the county to visit different farms or hoping to make it to the farmers market before it closes, you can place one order, make one stop, and support multiple local producers at the same time.
Your membership helps strengthen our local food system by giving farms a reliable place to sell their products while making fresh, locally produced food easier for families to enjoy.
