Spa City Local Farm Market Co-op: Food for thought
Dear Spa City Co-op Members,
Lest we forget that in modern times, our food system is complex and often wasteful. Here’s an article that addresses that issue:
https://www.mnn.com/earth-matters/energy/stories/look-path-your-food-takes-get-your-plate?utm_source=Weekly+Newsletter&utm_campaign=a87d5b468a-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_FRI1108_2019&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_fcbff2e256-a87d5b468a-40275741
Remember that local farmer’s markets, like SCC and the market downtown bring fresh food and help make the supply of food more secure. We help sustain the farmers of Arkansas every time we order or buy from them, and they in turn are there for us.
The Spa City Co-op market opens this Saturday at 9 am. This will be the last market before Thanksgiving.

The Cumming Harvest - Closed: Weblog Entry
Good morning,
We hope everyone is having a great week. Holiday season is officially here!
Because of that we want to let everyone know of certain dates that the market will be closed. As of right now we will be closed the week of Thanksgiving. That’s November 27 and 28, which means the market will not be open on Saturday the 30th.
Make sure to buy your Thanksgiving items the week before. As always any questions please reach out to the market manager.
Please remember the market opens Saturday at ten am and closes at noon sharp.
Remember, all proceeds go to support the feeding of hungry children through Meals by Grace.
And as always, enjoy shopping the Cumming Harvest Market. We have lots of fresh produce this week in stock!
If there are any questions or concerns about this please feel free to reach out to our market manager, Jaclyn.
Thank you, happy shopping!
