It's easy to get started on Harvest To Order, just follow the steps below:
- Register your enterprise. Choose the 'Producer' and then 'Profile' package types and complete your enterprise settings with your business details.
- List your products.
- Get in contact with Harvest To Order hubs through which you would like to sell your products- this might be as simple as talking to the hub manager when collecting your shopping or sending them an email.
- Connect through Harvest To Order to the hub where you would like your goods to be sold by setting up the appropriate enterprise permissions.

The hub managing your sales should periodically send you orders based on the time scales you agreed. Order notifications can be automated by the Hub to get to you by email.

More advanced features you might need
- Your products:
- Specify special credentials they may have have (eg. organic, plastic free...)
- If you have a product which can be sold in different forms (eg. potatoes sold in 500g, 1kg and 2 kg quantities) then you can simplify your listings by adding variants.
- If you sell irregular items like meat or vegetables (eg. a whole chicken, a large pumpkin) which are priced by weight then you can learn how to do this here.
