The Produce & Bakery are still open. Please try to place your orders for the Bakery early so they will better know how to plan. It is a slow season right now for the produce but a good time for some items and to be able to talk about any questions you may have about produce.
I am impressed how much gratitude and thanksgiving are emphasized in the Good Book. It seems that God knows it really does do us good to acknowledge the good and the right. It is one reason why I like real farm goodness. It isn't something we say, it is something I believe in. Each day I grow to appreciate new knowledge about just how good food can be. Amazed at not only seeing awe and wonder but tasting them. Like old friends introducing me to something new the richness of life adds more layers of gratitude.
Oh yeah... I am suppose to tell you that the market will close at 1pm on Wednesday. So be sure and pick up your orders by noon. Do have a Happy Thanksgiving!
