News Highlights
Fry Farm will have carrots, ginger, turmeric, N. Ga. Candy roasters, sunchokes, Napa Cabbage and Luffa sponges this week! They won't be offering our Harvest Boxes this week. The greens are needing some rest. They will be taking off the week after Thanksgiving and hopefully adding greens and boxes back after that. They will continue to list individual items as long as they can.
Gibson Farm will list organically grown Collard Greens this week. Also, gluten free pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread made from the heirloom pie pumpkins they grow on their farm. This is a seasonal offering so order while they have these items.
My Daily Bread will have Gluten Free and regular pumpkin rolls, bagels, and veggie cream cheese listed on the market in addition to all there wonderful baked goods. They will be running a special for the holiday on cases of jams. If you order a full case (12 jars), they are $5 each, instead of $6. Dabrielle usually puts festive fabric toppers on them so they are gift giving ready!
