NEWS AND NOTES
Frontier Family Farms fall spinach is here! It’s a great addition to a salad, and we still have lots of other summer vegetables to add to that salad. The variety of foods this time of year is wonderful, with the fall vegetables coming in while the summer vegetables are still in abundant supply.
But farmers’ markets are not all about vegetables. Please take note of some of the new and returning seasonal items available this week:
(L to R) Spinach from Frontier Family Farm, Mountain Fresh Tomatoes and Zucchini from White City Produce & Greenhouses, Dwarf Red Carnation and Bright Pink Coneflower from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse.

NEWS AND NOTES
The variety of foods this time of year is wonderful, with the fall vegetables coming in while the summer vegetables are still in abundant supply. But farmers’ markets are not all about vegetables. Please take note of some of the new and returning seasonal items available this week.
Triple B Farms has added Live Water Kefir Grains, a natural probiotic, and Square Bale Grass Hay for your animals.
Reminders: Ground beef from Paccman Ranch, as well as Scuppernong and Muscadine ciders, jelly, and fruits from White City Produce & Greenhouses, are in limited supply this fall season.
Dogwood Valley Greenhouse is running a fall special on perennial and herb plants and ferns: Buy 3, get one of equal or lesser value free. Fall is actually the best time of year to plant perennials, as well as a great time to get a jump on your spring gardening. Fall-planted perennials establish a strong root system over winter, allowing for spectacular spring blooming.
Local milk and eggs; pork and chicken cuts; and more are available here! Three types of dried herbs and five of fresh are also available to flavor those dishes! We have lots of homemade herbal products too.
(L to R) Scuppernong Cider from White City Produce & Greenhouses, Square Bale Grass Hay and Live Water Kefir Grains from Triple B Farms, Autumn Leaves Lotion Bar from Solace Farm, Purple Aster Plant from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse.

NEWS AND NOTES
From Dogwood Valley Greenhouse:
With somewhat lower temperatures and lots of rain, now is a great time to get a jump on your spring gardening with perennial and herb plants and ferns. Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has a great Fall Special for you. Buy 3 perennial or herb plants or ferns (mix-and-match), and get one of equal or lesser value at no charge. The free plant is your own choice from my market list, subject to available stock. Sorry, lavender and rosemary plants are not included in this offer. Most of the perennials are out of bloom, but fall planting will give them a chance to develop good strong root systems to allow for great spring bloom. Please add a message on your order including your first, second, and third choices for a free plant. We also have a few gorgeous large hanging baskets which, although not included in the special offer, will really add color to your porch or patio.
We still have lots and lots of summer vegetables on the market. This week we have zucchini, tomatoes, summer squash, red potatoes, peppers, onions, okra, lettuce, cabbage, and cucumbers. Local milk and eggs; pork and chicken cuts; and more are available here! Three types of dried herbs and eight of fresh are also available to flavor those dishes! We have lots of homemade herbal products too.
(L to R) Just a sampling of the perennial, fern, and herb plants included in the Fall Special from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse: Lambs’ Ears, Dwarf Coreopsis, Autumn Fern, Lemon Balm, and Silver-Edged Thyme.
