Several New Items This Week


Middle Tennessee Locally Grown market

will be open for your orders till Tuesday evening at 10 pm.



Country Road Homestead has added some new vegetables to the market.

(L to R, top) Dinosaur Kale, Mini Bell Peppers, Red Russian Kale.
(L to R, bottom) Jalapeno Peppers, Bell Peppers,

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has added some seasonal items, including Pansy Planter, and restocked some ferns and perennials.

It’s Christmas time in Tennessee! Well, not really, but it is time to put in your order for decorations from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse. This year I will be selling at Wildwood Christmas Tree Farm in Woodbury, and I want to be sure to reserve enough decorations for all my local friends.

So here is how this will work: prepay the total cost now, and reserve a delivery date. Note: it will be easier for me to fill your order on a later date. I promise I will not run out of wreaths and kissing balls, but it’s hard to make as many as are wanted early in the season. They should last about a month if outside, and will be just as beautiful after Christmas as before. Delivery will begin the first Wednesday of December and continue till all orders are filled. Order and pay now, pick up and enjoy in December. Coming in a month or so: Christmas cacti and African violets, both with foil florist pot wrap.
