Hi, all,

Welcome to another week of shopping at Manchester Locally Grown online farmers’ market. We are now open for ordering.



A message from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse:

We are taking orders through December 22 for beautiful Christmas kissing balls. Made with live greens and other natural materials, these balls are about 18" diameter and come in three styles. They are suitable to hang on a shepherd’s crook for a beautiful outside Christmas decoration. Each one is mounted on a sturdy hanger and includes a red ribbon bow.

Make a collection of common culinary herbs, to keep for yourself or to give as a gift. Please see the description under ‘Planters and Baskets’, and specify your choice of herbs from the list. If intended as a gift, please order early to allow time for custom preparation. Includes planter.



White City Produce and Greenhouses has added beautiful Christmas cacti to the market this week.



Cider and jelly, perennial plants, local baked goods, pork products, herbal bath & body products, local honey, fresh-laid chicken & duck eggs, and plenty more products are to be found on our market. Give them a try! Many of these items are suitable for gift-giving. Also remember our Gift Certificates available in any denomination for Christmas or other gifts.

And lastly, let us know if you are interested in a beautiful live Christmas wreath, made in three sizes and decorated by Petalland in Moore County. These are not currently listed on the market, but arrangements can be made to have them delivered to our market if you would like one.



REMEMBER:

  • Growers can sometimes remove items at the last minute, affecting your invoice. Please wait to make out your check until your total is established at market.

  • If you do not receive an order confirmation within 5 minutes, your order has NOT been placed in the system. Log back in and press the Place Your Order button; then you should receive an e-mail to confirm the order. E-MAIL tnhomeschooler@yahoo.com OR CALL US at (931) 273-9708 if the problem persists so you will not be disappointed on market day.

  • Take a look at our offerings and support your friends and neighbors who produce these quality items on their own farms. Remember: ordering will close on Wednesday at 10 p.m..








  • A sampling of items available from our local farmers: (L to R) Christmas Cactus from White City Produce & Greenhouses, Sourdough Rolls from Basically Bread, Garlic Leaf Card Set from Solace Farms, Christmas Kissing Ball and Herb Planter Collection from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse.



    We’ll see you for pickup of your order on Thursday between 3:00 and 4:30 at Square Books, 113 E Main, Manchester. We can also hold your order in the refrigerator till Friday morning, if that’s more convenient for you. Just call (931) 273-9708 if you prefer to utilize this free service. Square Books will be open on Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.



    Thanks so much for your support of Manchester Locally Grown Market, all of our growers, local food, and our right to eat it. Please encourage our local farmers by helping to spread the word about our wonderful market to everyone you know. Nothing makes a farmer more excited than seeing new customers on the market!



    Blessings,
    Linda
