News Highlights
AtlantaFresh Creamery - Chocolate Milk is back on the market this week! It will be on the market every other week.
Dancing Hearts Homestead will be offering Classic Sunflower and an assortment of bouquets this week. Order some this week to brighten up your home!
My Daily Bread - Dabrielle and Bruce will be out of town 9/5 so double up this week if you need bakery items the following week.
B&B (Bradbury Raw Honey) Bob and Bev will be on vacation from 8/23 to 9/5. They have some table sales at the market if you need some.
Carrell Farms - Now on the market every other week! Shalley and David have decided to deliver every other week instead of monthly. They will be back on the market NEXT week.
Cultured Traditions - BIG SALE!
- Simply Caraway Sauerkraut - $6 (usually $10). This batch of sauerkraut has turned out a little differently - It is very good but it is a little more sour and has a softer texture.
- Kimchi - $6 (usually $10). This is the kimchi that was made with last fall crop of Napa cabbage, it is absolutely wonderful, we just need more room for our new inventory. Get it while it lasts!!
There is still the "normal" version of these ferments and they are not on sale so make sure you choose the SALE item if that's the product you want to purchase.
Leilani's Farm will be offering squash, green beans, eggplant, peppers, and zucchini. Tomatoes will be back on as soon as they are ready. So keep an eye out for those. We;re getting close to the end of summer veggies. Feel free to freeze this year's harvest so you'll have plenty of veggies for soups and stews in the winter.
Fry Farm will be taking a 2 week break while they are waiting for some crops to come in. There just isn't enough growing right now to offer their produce boxes.
