Hi, everybody,

Welcome to another week of shopping at Manchester Locally Grown online farmers’ market. We are now open for ordering. During the Christmas and New Year’s weeks, pickup will be on Tuesday the 23rd and Tuesday the 30th. This means ordering will open on Sundays at 8 a.m. and end Mondays at noon. We will be back on our regular schedule for the week of Sunday January 4th.



Don’t forget to do your Christmas shopping with us! We have beautiful decorations (kissing balls and herb plant baskets with live greens and other natural materials, as well as wreaths available by contacting the manager, and Christmas cacti.) We have lots of products suitable for gift-giving, such as jams & jellies, honey, baked goods, cider, and hand-made items. A gift certificate to Manchester Locally Grown or to Dogwood Valley Greenhouse is always a welcome gift.



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 US at 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 Monday at noon.







  • A sampling of items available from our local farmers: (L to R) Fruit Jam from Doorstep Bakery, Stonehead Cabbage from White City Produce & Greenhouses, Lotion Bar Tin from Solace Farm, Mixed Lettuce from Frontier Family Farm, Herb Plant Collection from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse.


    This week and next,we’ll see you for pickup of your order on Tuesday between 3:00 and 4:30 at Square Books, 113 E Main, Manchester. We can also hold your order in the refrigerator till Wednesday, if that’s more convenient for you. Just call (931) 273-9708 if you prefer to utilize this free service. Square Books will not be open on Wednesday, but I will be glad to meet you.



    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
