Miami County Locally Grown: We're FINALLY open again :-)
I apologize for getting the Market open so late – I jinxed myself when I was so happy Anna, who turned 4 months old yesterday, was an angel for me all Market long today, because we got home and Little Miss Fussypants didn’t go to bed until just now!
And there’s just so much to tell you!!
First of all, a big WELCOME to our newest vendor – Marion of Green Fins in Piqua! Talk about fascinating… after taking extensive classes thru OSU and networking with other fish growers across Ohio, she has now built and begun her aquaponic operation, where she uses fish to supply the nutrients for her crops!! Year round growing opportunities, and the ability to (in the future) harvest delicious LOCAL fish for sale?! How exciting! We’re happy to have you join us, Marion!
We’ve got several awesome specials on Chicken – Michael Bair is running 3 different clearance sales with incredible savings… Organic Chicken Gizzards (only $1 for 1.25lbs!!), half priced Organic Whole Broilers, and $4 off Organic Cut up Broilers!!
Back by popular demand – King’s Poultry is offering 4 of their delicious 5" pot pies for $20!! Hearty, filling, and oh so good :-)
Plus 6635 StudeBaker has made available her incredible sourdough starter – what an awesome Freebie!! It’s so active and appetizing, you won’t be able to wait long to start baking – trust me!
And you don’t have much more time to enter our Gift Basket Giveaway!! Look under the MCLG category on the Market to select your favorite (or all 6) and we’ll soon find out who the big winners are!!

Market News
Hello!
Somebody forgot to list the Zephyr Yellow Squash on the Market on Sunday. They are up there now. There are plenty of great options still available.
The Market will remain open until Tuesday evening for you to place an order for this week.
Here is some information on how Fresh Harvest works.
*Orders can be placed without receiving the Sunday email. I try to open the Market between 7 and 8pm on Sunday. Sometimes I run a little late. Just go to the website: http://freshharvest.locallygrown.net/welcome to see if the Market is open.
*If you see an item as Sold Out, write in the Comment section at check out that you would like that item if more becomes available. We’ll try our best to add it to your order.
*PayPal payments have to be manually added to your account. There will be a delay to crediting your account due to me needing to take time to do the bookkeeping. I also have to go to each account with cash or check payments. These are sometimes delayed by procrastination or being busy. You can still place an order even though it may cause your account to be “overdrawn”. There is no penalty for going into the minus column. Sometimes I’m a little slow in getting to the bank to make deposits, but it eventually happens.
• If you recruit a new customer to Fresh Harvest and they open an account with a $50 deposit, we will credit your account $10 for each new customer who signs up. They will need to tell me your name, so that I can credit your account. Word of mouth has been our best advertising. Any help that you can provide is greatly appreciated.
• Every week, we leave orders at the church for customers who cannot arrive at Trinity before 6pm. This has worked well for those who have difficulty with the 4-6pm window. Please let me know if you need me to leave your order at the church.
• The bag that you receive each week is to be brought back with your next order. We have been negligent in telling new customers how this works. Don’t feel bad if you return multiple bags, it happens all the time.
• We’re into reusing and recycling. Our clean egg cartons, honey jars, paper and plastic bags, berry containers are some of the items that we can reuse. If we can’t reuse the returned items, we’ll recycle them.
• We do guarantee everything that we sell. If you ever have a problem, please let us know and we will credit your account.
• If there are other products or growers that you think should be a part of Fresh Harvest, please let me know.
Thanks for your support, and I will see you on Wednesday!
If you need to text me, my number is 615-838-0428.

Recipes
Mashed Potato Acorn Squash
Mashed Potato Acorn is so named b/c you can cook and then cream the inside flesh and it resembles “mashed potatoes”. Great for those on low carb diets. You can of course also bake these and eat anyway you want to cook a traditional acorn squash, it has ghost white skin and off white flesh.
Champaign, OH: Happy Labor Day!
We hope that you are enjoying your long weekend, and we hope that you have had time to get your orders in for the week!
We close on Wednesday at 6am! Still plenty of time!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
