My review was removed

My review was removed without any explanation or justifcation so I will check back periodiclly to see if it is still up. This was that bad an experience for me. Well I tried to work with Sue and Abbott farms, (and I choose my words carefully here) I found her to be arrogant, nasty and out right rude. At the end of my post I am coping 2 emails to substantiate this point. The second week I missed her at her designated spot, My wife and I bought a new car and it took longer then expected. Every week from that day I met Sue in a mutually acceptable place that was on her way home. After missing that first time she made it plain that there were no second chances, as she said my produce went back into the fold. Last week I missed our appointment due to a job interview. She didnÂ?t even have the decency to call and see if something happened. She just decided that because I did not contact her as to a second pickup time that I was no longer a viable customer and was no longer going to receive anything. She did email me something to that extent, but not having checked my email between that time and the next delivery I was caught waiting and waiting for her. When I call her to find out if something had happened she snapped on me yell and screaming, cussing and would not listen to anything that I tried to say. Then she hung up on me. When I called back she wouldnÂ?t answer. So I left her a massage that I would take her to court. She email me another message that you can read for your self. As to the quality, there were several times that I did not receive what was on the list and she passed it off as that was for the half shares; that I had already got mine; which I didnÂ?t. The portions promised were never to standard either, hardly enough for a family of 2 no less 4 like she claimed. I did receive 7 pound squash and zucchini that were not good for much of anything, onions that were more like pearl onions, not even enough for and egg sandwich and more Chinese cabbage then I ever cared to eat. Then there was the one time I sent my wife to pick up the delivery and she called to confirm the place and time and sue left a rude message as to getting sick and tired of our attitude, all she had to do was confirm a time and place. Needless to say I would not recommend Abbott Gardens CSA. Lewis
Lew,
My apologies for blowing up on you on the phone; however you pushed my last nerve with your attitude and perception, hence the result.
See below the message sent to you on 9/9/08. You weren't available for pickup on 9/8, no contact was attempted by you to advise this, no other call was made to arrange an alternate pickup, and frankly, I'd had enough of babysitting you. 30 other families didn't seem to have a problem with their weekly or biweekly pickups, and when there was a miss, they made arrangements promptly. I no longer had time to coddle you, what with running the CSA, a farmer's market, a garden, a household, wo
