You may have noticed that some new signs have shown up recently in the Deer Park Yoke’s parking lot. You can now purchase your groceries online or through the Rosie app and pickup in the parking lot.
Though curbside pickup was available at some stores prior to COVID shutdowns and quarantines, it has grown greatly in prevalence over the past few months. What was once an option for convenience now serves a greater purpose to those who are at high risk, or are quarantined and still need their groceries.
Deer Park’s Yoke’s store has recently joined the growing number of stores offering this service. By logging onto their website Yokesfreshmarkets.com/online or downloading the Rosie app you can now take advantage of this incredible option.
How to sign up
- Either go to Shop.rosieapp.com/store-selector or download the Rosie app from your app store

How to pick up
Picking up your order is easier as well. Simply pull into one of the marked parking spaces. There will be a sign with a letter A-D and a phone number. You can call or text this number to have your order brought out to you.
- Pull into the space, make note of which letter spot you are in
- Call or text the number
- In both instances they will need your confirmation number and the space that you have parked in
- Wait a short time for the courtesy clerk to bring you your groceries.
- For contactless delivery open the trunk or the door where you want them to place the groceries
This new service is already catching on among Deer Parkians, and could easily expand if it proves successful. There is currently no fee for curbside delivery.
