The Cumming Harvest - Closed: Weblog Entry
Good morning,
We apologize in the delay for opening the market. The main server had an Internet connection issue. And the website was down. We believe now the error has been fixed, and we shouldn’t have any issues moving forward with orders.
It’s summertime, and it’s hot. But that means we have lots of great vegetables to choose from.

Champaign, OH: The Barkery!
Just a note that going forward, if you need to order dog treats from Kim, at The Barkery, orders need to be in by Tuesday evenings, at 7pm!
She makes them all fresh, per order, and in her process, the treats need a drying processs which takes time!
So, remember, if orders contain her dog treats, make sure to get them in by Tuesdays!
Kim appreciates your business, and just wants to bring you the best product!
XOXO,

Miami County Locally Grown: The Farmhouse Bakery is BACK!!
Welcome Back to the Farmhouse Bakery – we’re glad they enjoyed their vacation, but we’re even happier to have them return :-)
With their incredible pies, they’ve got something for everyone, whether you’re looking for a classic cherry, peach or apple, or want a true taste of summer with a scrumptious key lime or lemon meringue!
I can’t wait to share their Vendor Feature – Carmen is one talented, hard-working woman!
And aren’t we lucky she can bake your custom orders the morning of pick-up, and have them in your hands only hours after she’s pulled your Rum Cake out of the oven!
