Damage Claims
We do our very best to pack orders to prevent damages in transit.  However, sometimes things happen while our wonderful products are on their way to your door and some damage is incurred.  If you receive an order with damage then please take the following steps: 
- Report the damage to the driver if possible.  
- Immediately photograph the damage to the packaging and item(s).
- Save the box and packaging from the damaged order until resolved. 
- Immediately contact us at shop@fifthseasongardening.com regarding the damaged order.

Standard Shipping Policy
We are able to process most standard orders within 24-48 hours of receiving the order.  Occasionally, there is an issue that affects our ability to process an order within the aforementioned time frame.  We will contact you immediately if this is the case.  We are not able to issue shipping refunds for delays on the part of the carrier.  

Expedited Shipping Policy
We offer a number of shipping options for expedited delivery.  Please note that the delivery timeline selected at checkout does not include the processing time for the order.  For example, if you select 2-Day Shipping with one of our carriers the order may take longer than this to arrive given our 24-48 hour processing window.  

International Shipping
Unfortunately, we are not able to offer international shipping at this time.
