Time to Order Fresh Local Farm Products!


Manchester Locally Grown Farmers’ Market

Good morning!

The market is open as usual, and will remain open for your orders till Tuesday at 10 pm. Please be sure to read the section of the page entitled “Important Ordering and Pickup Information.”

FARM NEWS OF THE WEEK




Kountry Vittles Baked Goods has finally added a bunch of new cookies – check ‘em out. You’re bound to find an ole favorite, or try something new and tickle those taste buds. I have added my best selling Stay Soft Sugar Cookie with buttercream icing, just in time for Valentine’s Day. Wouldn’t your Special Someone just love these?






Debbie Wittig of Knottynuffacres will be traveling, visiting grandchildren, for the next few weeks and has made her products unavailable to the market. We wish her safe travels and look forward to her return.

Next week is Valentine’s Day! This year, instead of a box of chocolate, why not give something different? Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has begonia planters dressed up for the holiday and guaranteed nonfattening! They are under “Live Plants —> Houseplants” as well as under “Seasonal Items”. Quantities are limited, so order yours soon. For your gardening Valentine, we also have Gift Certificates custom completed in any denomination you choose. “Think outside the box” of chocolates this year!

Thanks so much for your support of Manchester Locally Grown Market, and your friends and neighbors who have grown and produced these items. Please encourage our local farmers by helping to spread the word about our wonderful market to everyone you know. We offer a great variety of local farm products, and our items will be in your hands in time to plan for the weekend. Wonderful local products are available for ordering from the comfort of your own computer.

More new farmers are considering joining our market, if they can expect enough sales to help pay their transportation costs. Please help us grow the market by sharing this e-mail with your friends and inviting them to give us a try. And if you haven’t ordered from Manchester Locally Grown for a while, please check out our wide variety of offerings this week. Also please let us know if we can improve our selection or scheduling in any way to better suit your needs.

Blessings,
