Champaign, OH: Vacation
Vacation, all I ever wanted
Vacation, had to get away…
(The Go-Go’s)
Well, I am not going on vacation, but next week, many of your market vendors will be on vacay mode!!
Let’s give the vacation role call…
Flourish!
Burns Bakery and Fudge!
Ga-Ga’s Goodies!
S & S Naturals!
While we will miss them all, we bid them all a lovely bit of time away, and we give Rebekah, of Flourish, a huge congrats, as it’s her wedding weekend!
Anyway…the rest of you are stuck, here, with me…let’s get those orders rolling…
Also…super important…our egg vendors are all working hard to get more eggs on the market!!
XOXO,

Champaign, OH: Oh, What A Night
Oh what a night, hypnotizin’ mesmerizing me…
(Frankie Valle and the 4 Seasons)
So…this song…lol…first of all, it just made me so happy, tonight, to see all of your smiling faces, chat, laugh, exchange little quips and conversation, and send you on your merry way. Truly, Oh what a night…I love you all, so very much!!
But, as I was humming this song, as we waved goodbye to our last customer of the evening, I started thinking back to the release of this song, my, 7th grade, and seriously, in the most awkward stage of my being. Ever. Like…new braces, 70’s pre-teen hair, and super little, thin, and not a 70’s babe..lol.
This song came out, and I remember all of the parties, this song blaring, my usual guy pals all enthralled with the early developed babes, while your’s truly was busy refilling the chip bowls…lol..Ugh, good times, good memories, and now, those same boys are still my forever friends, and now they are sad that they passed over the chips girl.
Anyway, my awkward stage left, I recovered from my chips girl status, and went on to have fun, wild, and memorable times. But, character building came from those chips girl days, and sweet dance moves perfected, and early party planning skills while everyone else was making out under black lights…
This market reminds me of that really great party, really fun time, and lots of friendship building, and a real dance worthy Thursday market pick up…
Oh what a night every Thursday is…and, who knows, maybe I will pass out bags of chips, next week, to celebrate the old days of your market girl’s chips girl days…
The market is now open, we always make it a party, and I look forward to seeing you all, next Thursday…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
Formerly the girl in charge of chips…

Statesboro Market2Go: Market2Go Pickup!
Market2Go pickup in Statesboro is now at the Statesboro Convention and Visitors Bureau (SCVB) at 222 South Main Street. All pickups are on Thursday.
STATESBORO – THURSDAY Drive Through at SCVB starts at 3:30.
- Last names A – F 3:30 pm — 4:30 pm
- Last names G – N 4:30 pm — 5:30 pm
- Last names O – Z 5:30 pm — 6:30 pm
SYLVANIA – THURSDAY Pickup at Victory Gardens General Store
All Sylvania customers 4:00 pm — 5:00 pm
Want to change your pickup time? The purpose of the time slots is to try to achieve an even flow so nobody has to wait too long. But we want this to be convenient for you: if you need to change your time slot or location, please text 912.481.2263, tell us the ORDER NAME and the TIME you would like to pick up. We will even assign you some “bonus time” if you need to come after 6:30. Just let us know so we can make sure your order is in the right place at the right time. Please do NOT come before 3:30 as this creates a traffic backup.
Remember! When you head out to your pickup location, be sure to take a mask, a placard with your order name(s), and appropriate containers for your food.
THE DRIVE-THROUGH PROCEDURE in Statesboro.
- Drive to the right (counter clockwise) all the way around the SCVB, keeping to the outer perimeter and maintaining a tight queue. A volunteer will check you in as you come around the far side of the building.
- Please display the name(s) for your order(s) on a windshield placard to assist in quick and safe check-in.
- Please wear a mask while communicating with market staff.
- Provide access to your vehicle and to the containers you want loaded (bags, boxes, bins or coolers); unlock the back door or the trunk, with containers inside.
- We recommend that you bring a cooler for transporting meat, dairy and perishable items. Ice cream melts, even in a short car trip, and our fresh non-homogenized milk is temperature sensitive.
- Wait in your car for the runner to come out with your order and load into your containers. Make sure your name placard is visible.
- If you did not prepay on line with a debit or credit card, please make a check for exact amount when your order is delivered. (You may pay cash in exact amount, but any “change” from cash received will be credited to your account. Use an envelope to label the cash payment with your order name.)
PICKUP for SYLVANIA CUSTOMERS.
Pickup is across the street from the Victory Gardens General Store. Please remain in your car until volunteers bring your order, and wear a mask when interacting with volunteers. We recommend that you bring a cooler for transporting meat, dairy and perishable items.
HOME DELIVERY CUSTOMERS.
Orders will be delivered between 2:30 and 5:00 by Boro Takeout. You will receive a notice when your driver is on the way. We recommend you leave a cooler at the front door (or your designated delivery location) to facilitate no-contact delivery and to keep perishable food safe.
EBT CUSTOMERS.
Right now we can scan EBT/SNAP cards only at the Statesboro pickup location. So, if you have ordered online with the intent to pay with your EBT card, you’ll need to come to the Statesboro Drive Through at the Convention and Visitors Bureau between 3:30 and 6:30. Email or text us in advance so we can calculate your bonus dollars and the amount to be charged to your card.
Foothills Market: Market Reminder
Foothills Market will be open until 5:00 p.m. today. Don’t forget to place an order, and we’ll have it ready for pick-up tomorrow between 4:30-5:30 p.m.
