Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market: Better Late than Never!
Sorry we got a late start on opening this week! I’m going to use the holiday as my excuse LOL :)
We’ve reached the end of our lettuces so they’ve been pulled and fed to the chickens. Many of the garden plots have been amended and planted with another round of squash and tomatoes, sweet potato starts, pumpkins, and more greens! Okra has started coming in, but not enough to fill orders so look for those and tomatoes in the stand when you pick up.
Thanks!

Hello, lovely market customers!!
Here’s hoping that you had a lovely holiday, yesterday, and if it extends into today, I hope you have a lovely one!
Your market manager had a busy one, and ended it, yesterday evening, with the first country cruise of the season, in my convertible, and this random 70s playlist cd was in the car, so I popped it in, and this song was playing…perfect for a warm summer evening, celebrating the July 4th experience!
So, now that you have this song rattling around in your head, take some time to get your market orders in! The holiday weekend gets away, and on Tuesday morning, you don’t want to be left all sad, and blue, because you forgot…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
