Middle Tennessee Locally Grown:  Just a Short Time Left to Order!


Don’t forget to place your order on Manchester Locally Grown market by our new order closing time of Tuesday evening at 10 pm for delivery fresh from local farms on Thursday.

Please bear with Casey Family Farms as their milk production is down. They are doing everything they can do bring it back up, and appreciate your business and support.

What good eating, so easily available on our online market! Remember that we are a year-round market, not subject to seasonal closings like the local farm stands. Don’t forget all our eggs, fruits & vegetables, local honey & jams! Please note that we have bread from two new bakeries and lots of new pork products!

We also have a great selection of perennial plants & hanging baskets, herbal & handmade products. Now is a great time to plant perennial plants for spring color.

Pickup of your order will be at Square Books, 113 E. Main St, Manchester, from 3:00-4:30 on Thursday. Please e-mail me at tnhomeschooler@yahoo.com, or call (931) 273-9708 if you would prefer to pick up on Friday morning between 10 am and 1 pm.

Thanks for your orders last week! Please encourage your local friends and family to shop at our year-round market and support local farmers!

Here is the complete list for this week. See you on Thursday!

Champaign, OH:  Your Song


And you can tell everybody this is your song…
It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done…
(Elton John – Your Song)

Your Song…everyone has a song inside of them, yes? I like to think so. I like to think that no matter what, each of us, has a song to sing, a tale to tell, and story to share. This is what I love about people, about life…I love the history and richness and colorful songs that we all have inside.

This song always reminds me of a little dimly lit bar that I used to frequent when I lived in Los Angeles. It was an old school bar that housed a piano and a piano singer. Not the trendy piano bars of today. This was a red velvet, smoke filled, mirrored walls kind of piano bar.

I had a friend who would fly in from London, we would hit the out of the way spots off of Melrose, buried away, and discuss life, the city,life, where life was taking us. This little bar was a perfect place for inspiration. You went there to drink, to listen, to plan, and to get your own song out…because everyone has a song.

This little local market has become my song, of late. I have been singing it’s praises, all over. Along with your two assistant managers, we have all been out and about, singing your praises, getting the word out.

Recently, I have been hitting the speaking circuit with your assistant manager, Mark, from Oakview Farm Meats.

Charlene continues to sing your praises and our market fun to the physical markets and all who she comes into contact with.

We all have a song, we all have a story, and we are all about singing it out, singing it proud, and singing loud about this market.

Today found Mark and me at Urbana University. Friday, we travel to the University of Dayton for the Montgomery Food Summit. On Monday, we travel to Union County to speak to their local food council. It’s exciting times, and there is plenty to sing about!

Be excited, be proud, and get involved in being a part of this market! I cannot sing the praises of this market, enough!! I find myself talking, at great lengths, out to the masses, about this market.

Please, take a minute, find your song, find what drives you, find your passion…and sing it to the world.

If you are a market customer, I am now singing the praises to you…our loyal customers are out in full force, this week, but you know what…we have an AMAZING amount of new, first time customers!! Our family grows, expands, sings their songs.

It is Monday evening, you have time to sit and make this your ONE STOP, EVERYTHING STOP to shop for the week!!! We now offer it all…for you…we can do it all while you are out singing your song…

A few things to point out….

Frozen red raspberries have been added by Champaign Berry Farm!!

Lovely carrots have been added by our End Of The Road Farm!!

Gift boxes have started to make the scene for your holiday gift buying!!

Give us a look, sing us your song, join in the local family…

Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam

South Cumberland Food Hub:  Time to Order Local Food!


Good morning from the South Cumberland Food Hub. Looks like the first freeze of the year has arrived and most likely finished out any summer crops that were still hanging on for some farmers. It’s good news for the fall crops though, makes everything taste better.

We have greens in abundance and winter squashes, garlic and much more this week. Check out the whole list here:

We’re open till noon, have a great day!

Jonesborough Locally Grown:  Want to talk about local food & health?


Next Monday and Tuesday (11/10 and 11/11), a “listening crew” for a new documentary called Healthy America will be visiting the region. They plan to stop in at Boone Street Market, and I’m wondering if any of you would be interested in being there during their visit so they could hear from you about how having access to local food (thru the farmers market, store) is improving your health?

I don’t yet know the schedule, but if you are 1) interested and 2) willing to hear about it on short notice…will you please let me know? Click here to email me at jbolocallygrown@gmail.com.

Thanks!
Karen
