Carolina Foothills, SC:  Market is Open!


Hi all,

Sorry I’m late today. We lost the internet yesterday and just got it turned back on about an hour ago.

I have been using the time to get my son Trent caught up on 2 tests that were supposed to be completed by 4.

For those that don’t know, my kids attend a home based public school so losing the internet yesterday really messed us up.

Anyway, come on in and take a look around.

Eat Well,

Susan.

Joyful Noise Acres Farm:  The market is open for ordering.


Good morning,
The on-line market is open for ordering. Being in the depths of winter, you will notice that vegetable selection is limited. Even my garden took a hit this week but will recover when the temperatures climb back up. Egg production definately dropped with the cold snap so please limit egg orders to 2 dozen this week so that we can spread the egg love around.
Georgia Farm to Table continues to bring a nice selection of vegatables to the market and Amestory Farm still has some winter squashes available.
Farm Fresh Foods has been working with fresh grains and gluten free options. We now have 2 sources of gluten free, Farm Fresh Foods and Snack N Joy. They both brought some fantastic treats last week for us to sample that many of you were able to enjoy.
We are blessed to have wonderful artisans and farmers to feed us.
So, happy shopping and see you Wednesday.

Champaign, OH:  Heartfelt Thanks and Love!


I open the market, tonight, feeling so thankful to my managers, Charlene and Mark, to all of you very understanding customers, and to the amazing help from the YMCA.

This morning found me totally knocked out with whatever is going around. I was sick, last week, thought I had gotten better, but not so much.

Mark and Charlene took the market, and my Cosmic customers were beyond understanding! I love that we can all rely on one another at our little local market. It took a bit of the stress out of being sick.

I am opening the market and drifting off to sleep. Stay warm, stay safe, and stay well…you can accomplish all of this with the ease of ordering from the market!

Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam
