Champaign, OH: Tuesday Groove
I remember when I was in college, every little bar in my college town had a, Groovy Tuesday. Drinks were cheap, free, depending on who you knew. The music was all groovy themed, and it’s where you went to kick away the remnants of Mondays, and to jump start your week, going into Wednesday.
Groovy Tuesday…I still think that Tuesdays are groovy, Mondays are horrid, and Wednesdays are just holding patterns until you reach Thursdays. The actual beginning of the week’s end.
I think it’s fitting to have this market’s last full day, each week, take place on the Tuesday groove.
Make it extra groovy by getting your orders in before 6am, tomorrow morning.
You don’t want to waste all of the grooviness that the market has to offer…
Our market, the vendors, the customers, the products…your own personal groove line…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

Market News

purple hull peas $2.50 lb.
October beans $3 lb.

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.
*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.

Old99Farm Market: Old 99 Farm, week of July 13, 2019
We are coming into the bountiful harvest season with new vegetable crops and berries ripe for picking.
Added this week: beet greens, chicory (young green radicchio), carrots, lovage, New Zealand spinach, cukes and new collards.
Last week I listed all the crops we have in the ground and forgot eggplant and sweet and hot peppers!
Black currants are now ready for picking at $1/100 gm which works out to about $5/qt or L. Raspberries same price. Bring your containers or use ours.
Eggs on special: buy 2 get one free dozen.
Beef: ground, steaks, stew (kabobs), roasts all available.
Pork selection: chops, roasts, smoked ham steaks and hams, more.
Website call-out for the week: David Holmgren’s FutureScenarios essay from 2008. He is the co-founder of permaculture, the design system for living well within the Earth’s means. He ends with this conclusion:
Let us act as if we are part of nature’s striving for the next evolutionary way to creatively respond to the recurring cycles of energy ascent and descent that characterise human history and the more ancient history of Gaia, the living planet. Imagine that our descendants and our ancestors are watching us.
