Good afternoon.

The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your order by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 3 and 6 p.m. Wednesday. See the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link: https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market

Does it seem that time is speeding up? Here we are, the first Sunday in March! And next weekend, we adjust to daylight savings time. I am thankful for the mild weather lately, but cannot help feeling that Mother Nature may play a mean trick on us with a late freeze! I certainly hope not, but we’ll see. In the meantime, today is a splendid day to be outside enjoying the brilliant sunshine and fresh air (if you’re not sensitive to pollen!). We’ll be at the soccer fields this afternoon.

Thank you for supporting locally grown agriculture. We’ll see you at the Market.

Thanks,

Beverly

Botanical Harmony Farm has plenty of duck eggs this week! Stock up for Easter baking or incredible soft or hard boiled eggs!

Linda from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse sends this cheery Springtime note:

It’s really coming spring at Dogwood Valley Greenhouse! Apparently, once the ball gets rolling, it’s not going to stop. The daffodils are past, and now the early perennials are taking their place. Imagine my surprise to find several blooms in the greenhouse, even though the weather is returning to more “seasonable” temperatures. The market software won’t let me feature all these bloomers, so here is the list for this week (with many more waiting their turn for next week):
Catchfly, Creeping Phlox (one color now, more coming), Primrose, Pulmonaria, and variegated Vinca. Please notice that they are all in very limited supply, which means if you want one of these specifically, you should place your order early. Also I have a decent selection of good strong herb plants, still small but ready to grow for you (Cat Mint, Greek Oregano, Peppermint, Salad Burnet, Chocolate Mint, Orange Mint, and others). Lastly, although not blooming, Lamb’s Ear and Valerian (Garden Heliotrope) are growing like crazy and would love to do so in your garden. Don’t forget our beautiful houseplants (a selection of potted ones and some really nice Wandering Jew hanging baskets). If there is anything specific you’d like for your spring garden, please let me know so I can be on the lookout for you.

So excited for gardening this year! Linda’s plant starts are hardy and always grow beautifully for me!

There will not be delivery ervice this week. We apologize for this inconvenience. Delivery returns next week!

Gracie Martin, MTSU journalism student and Quinn’s Mercantile employee came out last week to interview Tracey and Michael Raines (Frontier Family Farm) for a school project. The focus was on how unique our online market is for our community and we agree! Our market is so special and we appreciate Gracie using us as her subject! Can’t wait to see the interview and hopefully share!

Check out all the excited listings on our incredible market!

See ya on the porch!!

Farm News of the Week

Weaver Farms is a seventh generation family farm located on the Coffee/Franklin County line near Hillsboro, Tn and Woods Reservoir Lake. Our farm is currently operated by father and son, Ray and Jamie Weaver, supported by their wives Elaine and Ashley Weaver. In continuing with our family tradition, our children are being raised to understand and appreciate the value of our farm so that if our children choose to they can take over one day.

We grow sweet corn, grapes, and pumpkins; and raise home-grown pork and beef. Year round we have home-raised pork products! We use traditional farm practices but have and are willing to adopt new technologies in order to be more efficient and environmentally friendly. There are no hormones, antibiotics, or MSG in our products. Our pork is USDA inspected and has no water added back in. We offer various cuts of pork including pork chops, Boston Butt, ham, and shoulder roasts. We also have ham slices, blade steaks, cubed ham cutlets, ribs, and sliced and whole sides. Liver, neck bones, and ham hocks are available. We have three varieties of sausage -— hot, mild, and extra-sage are available.

We work hard not only to preserve our farm’s future but agriculture as a whole. We are involved in several agriculture and community organizations which include Farm Bureau, Soil Conservation, Pork and Cattleman’s Associations, FFA Alumini, TN Farm Wine Growers Association, Farm Animal Coalition and Hillsboro First United Methodist Church.

Hope for Health in Hillsboro has added Old World Authentic Einkorn Sourdough bread in half loaves and whole loaves.

Don’t forget to order early if you would like some of the limited number of duck eggs from Solace Farm.
