Product Melt
We take every precaution necessary to make sure your products arrive to you damage-free and without melting. Reliable insulated packages are very costly and unfortunately, that cost will have to be passed on to our customers. Even if we do offer insulated packaging, there is no guarantee that product melting will not occur. We find that product melt typically occurs during the months of late May and early September. If melting does occur simply refrigerate for one to two hours and remove and place at room temperature. Even in its melted state, the butter can still be used and maintain all its beneficial properties. Please consider the following before placing an order:
-
Be mindful of your year-round climate
-
Monitor your tracking number for delivery time/date
-
Remove package from mailbox promptly
-
Have your package shipped to a location with air conditioning or to someone who is home and able to accept your package
