Tullahoma Locally Grown: Market Open in Middle of Heat Wave
Hello,
We opened the Tullahoma Locally Grown Market this morning. Instead of venturing outside in the current heat wave, how about looking at the wonderful products our growers have for you.
There are new Baked Items, Gluten-Free and Puppy Treats in the market. Feel free to browse through the 430 products to choose from. The market will remain open until noon on Wednesday.
Thank you for supporting our local growers and the market.
Stay cool,
.
Spa City Local Farm Market Co-op: The market is open.
The Spa City Co-op market is now open for ordering at spapcity.locallygrown.net. Please place your order between now and 9 pm on Tuesday night, and plan to pick up at Emergent Arts on Friday between 3:30 and 5:30 pm.
Don’t forget that the co-op runs on volunteer energy, so please go out to the Volunteer Spot site on the market page and sign up to work a market. It’s fun, informative, and you earn two months on your membership, plus a $5 gas card if you work an entire 1-5:30 shift.
