Important! Pick up Changes this week
Pick up this Wednesday, 10/31 will end early at 4pm due to Halloween. Put a reminder on your calendar right now so you don't forget!!! I don't want to have to donate your items to trick or treaters, lol! - it would be healthier than what they're getting though... But seriously, please don't forget to pick up by 4pm.
A&A ALTA CUCINA ON THE MARKET THIS WEEK!
They just added Gift Baskets if you want to get a head start on your Christmas shopping! They also make perfect hostess gifts! Items will be delivered for this week's pick up.
Pre-Order Thanksgiving Pies!

Don't forget about Hand Pies!
So, the main problem with an online farmers market is sometimes items get forgotten about... the whole outta sight, outta mind thing. We don't want to lose Happy Camper!! If you love their gluten free hand pies please show your support and order them. I really want to keep them on the market!
These are perfect for when you’re grabbing something to snack on midday or running out the door with breakfast! All pies are gluten free. Just pop it in the toaster or oven for 10-15 minutes and you have a hot, savory, toasty snack or breakfast!
It’s made with a crust of sweet potatoes and cassava flour and filled with seasonal local vegetables.
CARRELL FARMS ON THE MARKET THIS WEEK
Fresh Harvest- Last Week to Pre-Order for Thanksgiving Turkey
WILD ALASKAN SALMON BACK ON THE MARKET
PLEASE HELP! Volunteers Needed at pick up!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Please consider volunteering during market pick up. I can’t run the market without your help! Shifts are 1 hour long and go by really fast. It's a great opportunity to meet fellow members!
Nicole, Karen T, Chuck, Lauren (with Evie & Liam), and Cindy for volunteering last Wednesday! We couldn't have the co-op without our amazing volunteers!!
FREE PRODUCE FROM THE VEGGIE PATCH
New Items!
Cultured Traditions has a new soup - Minestrone Soup with gluten free pasta that is absolutely amazing! My family and I had some last night as a quick meal and it did not disappoint. We had 4 empty bowls at the end of dinner.

Another one of our amazing members, Joanna Ortega, has recently released her own children's book! Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HHCD8FY
I Am Good in My Heart: Helping Kids Understand Self-Worth
Most psychology professionals agree that a child’s self-esteem set point is created during years one through eight. This book is designed to help preschool age children understand that they are always good in their hearts, even when they make mistakes or do the wrong thing. It helps them understand that they can make a better choice the next time. In the end, when they remember that they are good and act in a way that reflects that, they are happier and so is everyone else!
