Suwanee Whole Life Co-op: Share Your Opinion!
Please take a moment to complete this quick survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TTLZK7J
I know the majority of our members can’t volunteer during pick up hours due to family commitments or work responsibilities so this is an easy and quick way to help out our market. It’s only 8 questions and literally takes about a minute.
Thank you!

Miami County Locally Grown: For a Limited Time Only...
We have Butternut Squash on the Market! From 3-6lbs, these chemical free beauties are delicious, versatile, and on the Market from Marrs Produce Farm in Piqua!
And only for a short time, Rachel Lusk has brought back both her savory Tomato Basil Garlic Bagels and sweet Apple Streusel jumbo Muffins!!
Also, Michael’s Pastured Poultry just added two new Certified Organic listings… for Chicken Backs and Chicken Feet! Perfect for Asian dishes or making bone broth – who won’t be glad for some chicken stock when the cool weather hits for real?!

Suwanee Whole Life Co-op: Need your help! Volunteer needed at 4pm today!
Hi Everyone, I don’t usually send these requests to the entire co-op but I’m starting to panic because we still don’t have anyone signed up to volunteer at 4-5pm today. I can’t cover this shift because my son has a dentist appointment at 4. I’ll even take two 30 minute volunteers. I just need to make sure the pick up location is attended and we have 5 new members that need to be greeted and shown the pick up process.
If you can help out please click link below or you can text me at 404-934-4644

Miami County Locally Grown: And the winners are...!!!
Congratulations to our next Refer-A-Friend winner, Diane Woolley!! It is so exciting giving out these $10 Market gift certificates every month!! Keep those referrals coming!!
And a big THANK YOU to our Vendor Appreciation Gift recipients, Dennis and Keba Hitzeman – aka Innisfree on the Stillwater Farm!
Fantastic believers of the Market from the beginning, Dennis and Keba are true supporters of Local Food, being dedicated farmers themselves. Their Innisfree on the Stillwater is a beautiful family farm over in Pleasant Hill, where they flourish with a crazy variety of animals and projects – so glad to have their custom-roasted coffee on the Market!!
And Keba’s a glutton for punishment when it comes to volunteering her time for the Market, whether it be at pick-up, as a last minute fill-in when someone has to cancel, or at any of the events where the Market sets up to advertise and sell outside of our location at First Place!
Thanks for all of your support, you wonderful Hitzeman’s – I’m so grateful to call you friends and fellow vendors! :-)
