New Field Farm's Online Market:  Happy September!


Greetings,

We’re adding curly kale and Lacinato, sometimes called dinosaur kale for the texture of the leaf.

We should have lettuce, despite the continuing heat, but no salad mix until next week.

The big surprise last week was to see four goats grazing in our field. We couldn’t corral them and when they started heading for the lettuce Meridian shooed them away and they scrambled off into the woods. We later heard that they’ve been wandering loose for days and no one can catch them. Hopefully, their owner will get them back soon before they get into trouble. It was fun to see them, but not who we want sampling our crops!

Thank you for your orders and enjoy the waning summer.

Remember to finish your orders before the market closes tomorrow at noon.

News/Updates

I need one more volunteer for the Saturday late shift. You can sign up here: Volunteer Spot.

Also, if you have extra plastic or paper sacks at your house, please bring them this Saturday. We are low on sacks for groceries.

I’m pleased to announce Amy Pritchard has courageously stepped up to the Governance Chair and plopped down with vigor and optimism. May our board meetings be charged with orderly conversation and creativity. Welcome Amy, and thank you for joining!

Don’t forget there will be fresh roasted coffee and other goodies for those who stretch their necks into the future and plan their eating escapades.

Rest well,

Kyle Holton

NEWS AND NOTES

Paccman Ranch has once again listed their 2 pound package of ground beef. Get yours before they run out!


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: buy 3 perennial or herb plants or ferns (mix-and-match), and get one of equal or lesser value at no charge.


We still have lots and lots of summer vegetables on the market. This week we have zucchini, tomatoes, summer squash, red potatoes, peppers, onions, lettuce, 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) Mixed Lettuce from Frontier Family Farm, Yellow Crook-neck Squash from White City Produce & Greenhouses, Ground Beef from Paccman Ranch, Fresh Apple Mint from White City Produce & Greenhouses, and Toad Lily Plant from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse.
