How the farmnivorous store works in a nutshell

In your Product Catalog, input product names, descriptions, and sizes for your products individually or all at once by uploading a spreadsheet. Images are uploaded individually, but that is easily done from a smartphone.

On your Inventory & Pricing page, set the price and amount for each size of each product. Set up private pricing with restricted access by customer. For venues that repeat, here is also where you can choose whether the inventory count resets each new date vs carries over. You can also optionally set customizable tax rates by product and even venue if necessary.

On your Venues & Dates page, create your own venues or search for venues managed and shared by others, like a farmers market. For each venue you create, you set the date and time of the pickup or delivery window, as well as when ordering opens and closes for that venue. For recurring weekly venues, like a farmers market, check a box to auto-schedule each week. If you offer delivery, restrict order placement by zip code and optionally charge a delivery or ordering fee.

On your Sales & Customers page, see sales by customer or download your sales data to a csv file. For each venue with sales, leverage the pick list, packing slips, and more to prepare for fulfillment. If you are a market coordinator, use the packing list to gather products from each contributing vendor in order to offer curbside for customers in need.

On your Vendor Profile page, upload your logo, a photo for your store banner, manage your customer-facing information and connect a Stripe account.

Credit Cards, Stripe, and Banking

Every vendor account requires an account with Stripe for online orders with a card, but also has the ability to accept orders without immediate payment. If you don't have a Stripe account and want to enable or require online payment by card, we'll take you to Stripe where the process to open one can take just a few minutes... assuming you have your business tax ID and bank details in hand.

It is Stripe who processes the credit cards and your sales will be subject to their rules and fees.

There is no fee to have a Stripe account and connect it to farmnivorous, but Stripe will deduct their standard transaction fees before depositing your sales proceeds into your bank account.

farmnivorous is not designed to have access to your bank account and stripe account beyond processing the original transaction. Refunds, for example, would be managed in your Stripe Account. Farmnivorous does not need or want your banking details apart from connecting your Stripe account.
