Greener Acres Farm:  Online Market Closure


It is with great regret that I inform you this will be the last week for the online farm market. This was not an easy decision to make, but with my increasing health problems, it has come to the point that I can no longer continue. Please be assured that any orders placed this week will be filled and delivered as usual.
I apologize that it is such short notice. I will be refunding the pro-rated amounts of the remainder of your membership fees and for those with credits on their account balances, those will be refunded as well. You will each receive an email containing the exact amounts in the following days.
It has been a pleasure providing you with this service and I feel I have made a lovely circle of friends. In the end, I have to be a bit selfish and think of my own health as I move forward.
Thank you all for your incredible support.

Middle Tennessee Locally Grown:  Reminder: Ordering Closes at 10 pm



Manchester Locally Grown market





Our pickup location is across the street from the Manchester City Schools administration building, which is located at

216 East Fort Street, Manchester, TN

If you don’t see a map, click on the address link.




Good morning!




This is just a friendly reminder to place your order online by 10 pm this evening.

Remember to hit that last “submit” button. I really dislike disappointing a customer who comes to market, only to find no order in their name because they didn’t hit the last button. When your order is placed, you will receive an email confirmation. If for any reason you fail to receive this confirmation, please contact Linda as soon as you realize it’s missing.

Also please go to our Facebook page & like, comment, and share this week’s post. Facebook isn’t allowing me to post on multiple sites, or post multiple photos. So please help us spread the word. Surveys indicate that word of mouth is the most effective form of advertisement. Please help us advertise our fantastic growing market!

See you on Thursday!


Blessings,
Michael & Linda

Dawson Local Harvest:  Dawson Local Harvest Mentionables


Dawson Local Harvest for August 31st

Dawson Local Harvest Mentionables

HI EVERYONE

On an Online Market like the Dawson Local Harvest it’s easy to just order the same ol’ things every week without noticing some of the other neat products that are innovative, all-natural and healthy alternatives to “regular stuff”. Here’s a couple of examples.

HANALEI BATH has a whole range of Bath and Beauty products using nothing but healthy essential oils, natural cleansing salts, shea butters and the like. Hand-crafted Body Soaps, Bath Salts, and Essential Oil Blends are just some of what they do.

If the only Eggs you’ve ever eaten come from Kroger you are missing out! “Real” Eggs from BEAR RIDGE LODGE not only look different, more importantly they taste different, and in this case Different is definitely better. Omelets, Quiche, or just scrambled, they’re scrumptious! Try some and you’ll see what I mean.

If you’re looking for a way to “spice things up” in your daily menu, consider the somewhat-exotic flavors from CULTURED TRADITIONS. Their blend of eastern European and Russian flavors are not only delicious but tremendously healthy, as in probiotically healthy. There’s always something new to try. This week it’s Garlic Dill Pickles. Yum!! In the Fermented/Probiotic section.

Lots of Vegetables, Mushrooms, free-range Chicken, a Bounty of Baked Goods and More at Dawson Local Harvest.

The Market closes tomorrow night. PLACE YOUR ORDER NOW!

Thanks, Alan, Market Manager

Winnsboro, TX:  Market is Open!


Good Monday Morning to you all,

The market is ready to shop. August is notoriously slow on the farms, with heat & drought plaguing crops. However, you can still find some summer favorites such as eggplant & okra. Lucky us, there is ALWAYS fresh lettuce when you have an aquaponics grower! Also year-round: our wonderful, local baked goods, dairy, & meat selections.

Have a great week,

Stacy
