Happy Sunday!!
And…Happy Coffeehouse Cosmic Trivia! You guys went so crazy, Friday evening, with emails, texts, and messages, answering the Cosmic Trivia Question!!
The question asked what two Urbana/local coffeehouses used to feature my breads, for serving, and for selling, years ago!
Many of you emailed me, Madison’s, and while that was a correct answer, it was not the two I was looking for since I featured Madison’s, already!
The answers…The Depot Coffeehouse, and The Spotted Cow Coffeehouse!
And, we have five winners, all frantically sending answers at about the same time. How could I turn any away??
So…congrats to these market winners!!

Dothan, Alabama: Feb. 6, 2020 M@D Newsletter - VIP info here!
THANKSGIVING TURKEY ANNOUNCEMENT
After a long absence from Market at Dothan, we are back and again offering our Broad Breasted Bronze Turkeys. Some years back we sold these turkeys and everyone loved and enjoyed them.
We are listings deposits on the Market to determine know how many we need to order as we must reserve the poults in advance. They will arrive May 2021 so they’re the perfect size and tenderness for your Thanksgiving.
Our turkeys will be free ranged and supplemented with non GMO feed like we’ve always done. The difference between the taste of commercial turkeys versus free range turkey is unbelievable.
Broad Breasted Bronze Turkeys have an excellent conformation and high meat yield due to its natural fat layering which makes for an excellent flavor. Total cost per turkey is $4.50 a pound dressed and your deposit goes toward the total.
Thank you in advance,
George and Kathy Hale

GROWER & MARKET NOTES
As always, THANK YOU for your recycling efforts through Market at Dothan. We love receiving usable items (usually egg cartons and jars) and make every effort to see they go where they’re most needed. A new item has come to our attention: Egg Shells. Egg shells are valuable in farming as they add minerals back to the soil and keep unwanted guests off plants when placed around the bottom. We’re showing you one easy way to “harvest and collect”, and if anyone needs a big mouth jar like the one shown, ASK and we’ll locate one for you.
The hamburger saute tool (Dollar General) does a great job with that.
AVALON FARMS:
Wanted to write to thank everyone for being so understanding Friday a week ago when I was delayed till 11:00 delivering to market.
Last Friday the dogs went out for their normal morning romp, but only one of them came back. We went looking for the other one and found her standing in the backyard just whimpering and unable to move.
Using a blanket as a sling, we very carefully got her into the car and got her to our vet. After some tests and x-rays, turns out she had cracked a vertebrae in her back. He wasn’t sure how, maybe been clipped by a car, or fell down chasing something – we’ll never know.
It’s been an interesting time. Almost like having a colicky baby in the house. (Again!) The original pain meds made her hallucinate and not sleep for 3 days. So none of us got much sleep for 3 days. She’s off those and doing better. She is now able to slowly walk and make the stairs to the yard. She loves laying in the sun out in the grass like a true farm dog.
Thanks again for your understanding. You are the best market family!!
Wendy and Zoe (farm dog)
We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible!
