ALFN Local Food Club:  Market Reminder


Good Evening,

Remember to make your order on the market before Wednesday at noon when we close the market and send all existing orders to our growers!

VOLUNTEERS

We are in need of volunteers this weekend. We had a few volunteers who had to adjust their plans due to unexpected events, so I have six shifts open. Please help us out if you are free. Remember you get $5 credit on your account, or you get one month of membership! Please sign-up here: Volunteers.

Thanks!

Champaign, OH:  Hello...


The holiday weekend has now officially come to a close, it’s Tuesday evening, not the Monday evening that it seems like, and we are looking at closing the market for the week.

The holiday weeks always seem to mess this market up a bit so I am going to leave it open until 11pm, this evening, so that everyone can race, run, speed to the market site and get their orders in!

I apologize for being a bit of a slacker on the Weblog front, this weekend. I took a bit of time off, and then I went to be with one of my oldest, and closest friends while their son is in the hospital in Dayton.

But, I am on it, now, and I want to see those orders flowing in!!!!

You have extra time…let’s get this party started!

Peace, Love, Good Vibes…

Hope you enjoyed your holiday, whether it was laboring or relaxing!
The market is open (we’re a bit late this week) and ready to take orders for Wednesday pick-up!

Tullahoma Locally Grown:  Your Market is OPEN - September 6


Good evening.

YOUR MARKET IS CURRENTLY OPEN.
Now is a great time to order meat for your weekend cookouts and other items you need for the week. You can order eggs, milk, vegetables, herbs, meat, freshly roasted coffee, flowers, and more.

Remember when we announced that Thanksgiving Turkeys are available for pre-order from Fountain Springs Farm? Well, there is a limited amount available, so the sooner you place your order, the better. You will find “Turkey Deposit” listed in the Meat/Turkey category. Be sure to indicate your desired weight between 14-22 lbs when you place your order.

In November, you will receive a turkey close to the weight you requested and pay the balance based on $3.75 per pound. This is a whole turkey with giblets. Do not worry, we will send reminders closer to November so you do not buy a frozen turkey.

Your local market closes at noon on Wednesday. Order now before your favorite items run out.

Here is the link to the market: Tullahoma Locally Grown Market

Thank you for your support. Have a great day,

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm,week of Sept 4 2016


Roma tomatoes on special for canning by the half bushel.
Lots of choice in greens, root veggies, fruit veggies, time to start thinking about freezing some organic goodness for the winter months. As of Sept 4th , we can offer the following crops: swiss chard, beet root, beet tops, green onions, leek, rhubarb, kale, arugula, tomatoes including cherry, beefsteak and roma, carrots, string beans (yellow, green and purple varieties), potatoes (cobbler, dakota and purple), garlic, and herbs: chives dill, spearmint, bronze fennel and lovage.

Day length is now a tad under 13 hrs of daylight we approach the autumn azumith. Chickens know what that is, cuz they start cutting back on laying eggs. We moved the pasture flock to the barn this weekend for that reason.

From Environment Hamilton fb page:
Without bees, we wouldn’t have tomatoes, grapes, blueberries, cranberries, cocoa, vanilla, tamarind, eggplant, sesame, raspberries, rosehips, pears, currants, pomegranates, almonds, peaches, guava, plums, cherries, apricots, avocados, beans, alfalfa, mangos, apples, sunflowers, cotton, soybeans, strawberries, figs, lemons, limes, carrots, squash, cucumbers, melons, hazelnuts, coffee, coconuts, tangerines, turnips, canola, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, canola, cashews, onions, celery, kiwis, and many more, even apart from the fact that we celebrate biodiversity in all its forms and feel every creature has a right to exist even if we weren’t dependant on it. We also know we are far from the only people that feel some urgent attention is needed to support and protect our pollinators.

That’s why we’re creating a “pollinator corridor” of native plants that will provide food and shelter for pollinators across the city of Hamilton, Ontario. We’d like to thank everyone who’s already contributing, and encourage others to learn more about how we can help support local pollinators.

Why not volunteer to help out?

Reminder about natural cheesemaking workshop Nov 12- 13, sat and sunday. Cost will be around $100. Learn from David Asher, Black Sheep Cheesemaking School, how to make many kinds of cheese with no special cultures, just natural fermentation and aging. We’re bringing David to Old 99 so you can learn firsthand. Pls give me a nod if you’re interested, two nods if you’re in for sure. Will take payment now at the store or online.
