Save on Shipping with Depot Pickup!

Above a certain weight, it’s cheaper to send a pallet of goods than it is to send lots of individual FedEx packages, but most customers don’t order enough at one time on their own to cross that threshold. To make freight savings available to more folks, we offer the Depot Shipping Program for Organic Growers Supply items, including potatoes and sets. By selecting "Ship to Depot" at checkout, your order will be grouped with other depot customers in your area, sent via freight to the farm or storefront you selected, and save you up to 80% on shipping.

  • Items ordered from our Organic Growers Supply can ship to most depots March-May. A few depots accept shipments only in April, when the potato orders ship. Our most popular depots also receive an October shipment. We have to adjust this schedule based on order volume and the availability of our depot hosts.
  • Potatoes and onion sets ship to depots in April only, once we have received and repacked all of our stock. Each depot has a designated week to receive shipments. Ginger and turmeric will be shipped in early March directly to the shipping address that you provide (not the depot), for no additional charge. Sweet potato slips and onion plants will be shipped to you directly from our grower.
  • Depot orders are accepted online only, as we need to communicate with depot customers electronically.
  • Our goal is to have orders available within two weeks after the order deadline. We will send a notification e-mail with pickup instructions when your order is ready. We expect customers to pick up their orders within a week of this notification. If you place a depot order and don’t hear from us within two weeks of the order deadline, please check the inbox and spam folder of the email address you used to place your order before contacting us.
  • Group orders are welcome to ship to depots to double up on their savings.
  • We need to collect at least 500 lbs worth of orders to make a depot shipment happen. If we have to cancel a depot shipment, we will offer to rebill you for FedEx shipping or to cancel and refund your order.

We currently have active depots in the following locations: CT (West Granby, Woodbridge), MA (Buzzards Bay), ME (Camden, Edmunds, Whitefield), NH (Canaan, Contoocook), NJ (Asbury, Pennington), NY (Delmar, Nedrow, Norwich), RI (Cranston, Little Compton), VT (East Dummerston, Manchester Ctr)

Depot hosts receive bulk pricing, and a small commission on depot orders. If you can accept truck shipments and would like to be a depot host, contact us: logistics@fedcoseeds.com.
