Market News

Good morning everyone!

Your market is now open for orders through tomorrow night at 10 pm.

New for this week:

Thanksgiving Week, which is NEXT week?!! How?, we will move pickup to TUESDAY at the same time, same place!
Also, we apologize for the inconvenience of having no turkeys this year. Next year’s producers have been secured and we will be ready for you!

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse will run the 10% discount on Christmas decorations just till Thanksgiving, so get your order in now:

Kissing ball (14" diameter) – retail $35, 10% discount till Nov 21 – $31.50

Wreath (about 24") – retail $27.00, 10% discount till Nov 21 – $24.00

Basket centerpiece (about 10" diameter) – retail $20.00, 10% discount till Nov 21 – $18.00

All are made with natural greens of various sorts, pine cones, and grasses, all gathered from our property or gleaned from a nearby Christmas tree farm. They are trimmed with bright red berries and a pretty red ribbon bow.

Why pre-order? Obviously, the 10% discount is nice. Besides that, these will be limited in quantity. Pre-orders are guaranteed to be filled, but I don’t know how many extras there will be for ordering after Thanksgiving.

Please comment on the order preferred delivery date, after Nov 23.

Also I’ve added some larger Christmas cacti in several colors, with wrapped pots, perfect as table centerpiece or in a sunny south-facing window. Although they’re called “Christmas” cacti, they are budded now and will be in bloom for Thanksgiving, and for several weeks thereafter.

Urban Sprout will be joining us, on the porch, for samples of new products!

Flying S Farms has 2 gorgeous varieties of cauliflower ready for you: Snowball White and Cheddar/Orange. Gorgeous additions to your appetizers, baked dishes and soups! Cauliflower is a great meat substitute and more. Absolutely underrated vegetable!

Start thinking about those Locally Grown/Made Christmas gifts! Jams, Pickles, Market Gift Certificates, Soaps, Packaged foods, breads and so much more make the BEST and so very appreciated hostess and holiday gifts! Useful, practical and incredible!

See ya on the porch!!
