Joyful Noise Acres Farm:  The market is open for ordering.

Good morning to all!
What a glorious week we have had with this beautiful weather. I can’t wait to get out and play in it today. I hope you have plans to be out this weekend and soak up the rays.

We are wrapping up most everything on the farm this coming week. We processed the last of the pigs and the freezer is stuffed with all kinds of goodness. We have chorizo sausage, Italian sausage, spare ribs, boneless pork chops, bacon and more. We also have more Tenderloin Roasts for your holiday needs. We will be keeping Cherokee Market stocked with our pork after this market closes so you can get your pasture raised pork fix when you get your milk.

Speaking of milk, if you are not going to make the move to Cherokee Market, Sam can bring your jars this week for you to pick up on Wednesday. If you do not want your jars, he will buy them from you. If you are continuing to order milk from Cedar Rock Dairy, bring your jars as usual this week and I will move them to Cherokee Market for pick-up on Tuesday. The milk will be delivered on Tuesdays, usually by early afternoon. I will give you all the details on picking up milk and dropping off jars, on Monday.

Thank you for supporting your local farmers and artisans.

Champaign, OH:  Our House

Our house it has a crowd…
There’s always something happening…
And it’s usually quite loud…
(Our House-Madness)

Cue the 80s club girl in me!

But, really…I have come to view this market, this weblog, this local family, all part of a happy home. And, while fun, and rowdy, and always promoting the local front, there are always those pesky housekeeping tasks that need to be done.

So, tonight, this message goes out to the lovely customers AND vendors of this little local market of love…

First up…we need updated information!! Address and phone number updates are now needed to keep us all organized, and in the know!!

I have noticed that I am getting outdated addresses and phone numbers no longer in use. And, while are updating those, or at least checking those, take a look at any other information that may need updating.

Vendors…update quantities of product, please! The customers want to order but sometimes we get a tiny bit behind on the updates!
