Fresh Harvest, LLC:  Fresh Harvest for December 18th - Last Delivery Until the New Year!

Market News

Hello!

Winter has sure arrived with fury! We’ve had much wind, sleet and brutally cold temperatures. Our crops have been snuggled in tight in our hoohouses and so far have survived. Tonight’s temperature is the lowest yet so we are keeping our fingers crossed!

This is the last week of deliveries until the New Year! We will NOT be delivering on Wednesday, December 28th. We plan on returning January 4th, but that week will be weather dependent. We will let you know, of course!! For now, please stock up on frozen items, dry goods, veggies and eggs for the coming weeks!

We have lots of items for your holiday needs! Your special meals can include lots of local meats and produce. We also have some nice ideas for gift giving!

We have Gift Certificates available! Get a friend started with Fresh Harvest, or support someone you know is already using our service. The Bloomy Rind has an amazing selection of cheese up, so consider giving the gift of cheese! Or put together your own cheese plate for entertaining. Other stocking stuffer gift ideas we have are honey, Bongo Java organic coffee, and Dozen Bakery cookies!

We are so grateful to all of our customers for the support through the seasons. Thank you for all the love you have shared with us this year. We are really looking forward to 2017!! We wish all of you a very Happy Holiday season. May it be rich with family and warm with laughter and good food! May Peace and Good Will to All prevail in 2017.

Thank you so much for all your support!
See you Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee

Good afternoon.

The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your orders 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 listings. Here is the link: https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market

This is the last opportunity our customers have to order from the Market before Christmas. If you still have friends and family to purchase gifts for, consider buying from our farmers, producers, and vendors.

While you all know that you can get milk, eggs, vegetables, meats, olive oil, and honey from The Wednesday Market, do you know that you can purchase some really CUTE crocheted characters that are perfect for brightening someone’s day? We also have great aprons and tote bags from re-purposed feed bags. Dried herbs and spices make perfect presents for the cooks on your list. Have you tried the wholesome health and beauty aids available through the Market? Do you have a potluck or party to attend but just don’t have the time or ambition to put together a dish or bake a cake? Let our bakers be your heroes by providing just the right goodies and entrees for your holiday celebrations. These are but a few of the many items offered by our dedicated farmers, skilled crafters, expert bakers and others who work diligently week in and week out to make our Market successful.

Thank you for your patronage of The Wednesday Market. We wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thanks,

Stones River Market:  OPEN this week for orders!!

Market News

PLEASE NOTE————-We will be CLOSED the week of December 28 with no ordering. -—————————————

Good morning and we hope you are all warm and safe after last night’s severe storms.

We have many new items listed this week from Valentine Family Farm: seasonings to herbal remedies!

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has a light pink and a red Christmas cactus listed. These are GORGEOUS plants to have or to gift! My mother gave me some several years ago and they continue to provide much needed winter cheer with their right-on-time for Christmas showy blossoms! I have even forced a second bloom by repotting!

White City Produce & Greenhouse will be with us this week.

Ann E May’s Gluten Free Goodies has listed several new items this week and will have a table set up for tasting! EVEN if you aren’t “gluten free” these baked goods are wonderful treats!

As I type this and try to think of all the wonderful items to mention on the market… I think of ALL our vendors because everything is wonderful!!

Nature’s Wealth added popcorn that has been grown “on the mountain” for over 30 years! It is small-grained, tender, and hulless. It is DELICIOUS!!!

we have jams, jellies, tempeh, meat of all kinds, milk, yogurt, eggs, baked goods, soaps, and so so much more to choose from!

If you don’t usually take time to browse for a new staple item, please do.. we probably have it!

Always wanted to help someone understand that eating naturally raised, produced or locally made foods/skin care has many benefits? Give them a market gift card, stock their fridge, pantry, freezer and bathroom with a basket of goods from a variety of growers/makers! Who wouldn’t love that gift? It gives to the community by supporting the vendors of the market (then they are able to provide for their families) and gives a wealth of knowledge through experiencing!

All done shopping :D

We will have vendors set up until Christmas each week. This week is Ann E Mays Gluten Free Goodies , Botanical Harmony Farm and possibly several others! We hope you will take an extra moment to browse their products and get to know the people behind the order buttons and photos!

Have a wonderful week!

See you Wednesday!

CLG:  Opening Bell: Pork, Eggs, Apples, Honey!

Good evening!
We will have market every Friday in December! Hopefully we’ll see everyone often. When it’s cold outside, (like right now!) we enjoy making a pot of purple hull peas. Saute a little bacon from Bar C, then add diced onions. After 10 minutes, add a pound of purple hull peas from Green Acres Atkins, a cup of water, 3 dehydrated smoked jalapenos and a tablespoon of Beaverfork Blend from Cedar Rock Ridge, and a ham hock or two from Bar C. Let that simmer for 2 hours. Then take the ham hocks out, pick out the meat and put it back in the pot. Serve with cornbread. MMMmmmmm!

This week’s EXTRAS table will have lots of special puppy treats for all the dogs on your gift list. Come early on Friday for the best selection. There will also be 5 jars of spicy dilled cauliflower pickles! KMG Farms even has a few turkeys available, but don’t delay.

We’re having our 3rd giveaway starting tonight! Each item ordered from Ratchford Farms this week will earn you one entry into the giveaway for a stylish large blue T-shirt featuring Ratchford Farms Buffalo Ranch. For example: Buy 4 packs of ground beef and get 4 entries. A winner will be drawn Friday morning and the winner announced in the Friday Pick-Up Reminder email.

Most items are listed by 6pm Sunday, but check back again before the market closes Tuesday night to see if any other items are ready to be harvested for you! Eat fresh! Eat local! Eat for better health!

Check out over 525 wonderful items listed right now. See you on Friday!

And save your eggshells throughout the week for the laying hens! :-)
