NEW DELIVERY DRIVER
As you all know, after 5 years, I am leaving my job as delivery driver for the CFM. Tuesday, Oct. 28, will be my last delivery. However, a new driver has come forward. Rachel Lynch has decided to take over deliveries, but two things will change.

First, customers will no longer see a delivery option on the CFM site. Instead, customers will notify Rachel directly and arrange for deliveries with her. Customers will also negotiate payment for delivery services with Rachel directly.
E-mail: radelo50@yahoo.com or phone 931-598-0774.

Second, since the driver cannot accept payments of any kind on behalf of the CFM, payment of all CFM orders MUST be made in advance of Tuesday’s delivery. Checks must be mailed in time to be posted to customer accounts before closing of market ordering on Monday. To ensure your account always has a positive balance, the CFM prefers payments in increments of at least $100.00. Mail checks made out to CFM to Kir Strobel, 744 Timberwood Trace, Monteagle, TN 37356.

Should at-home delivery not work for you, your second option is to leave your order at the Center to be picked up by you or a designée by 6 p.m. Wednesday. As with any left-behind order, there will be a $3.00 fee unless that order has been prepaid in full in advance. Don’t forget there is no freezer at the Center for the forseeable future, so it is imperative your items be picked up in a timely manner.

I have greatly enjoyed meeting and serving the CFM customers with at-home deliveries, and hope Rachel will, too.

Sincerely,
Linda

Spa City Local Farm Market Co-op:  From ABC Nature, Debe Hudson


Dear Co-opers -

Due to turning in my woody plant license, this will be the last time ABC Nature will be delivering hardy woody plants like tea plants, pawpaws, blueberry bushes, blackberry bushes and such because we are turning in our plant board license?

We will continue to provide herbs, spices and Tropical plants but we will not be able to provide woody plants for 2 reasons: 1. We are approaching retirement age and can’t seem to find the energy needed to continue to do all the plants we sell so we are turning in our plant board license. 2. We are trying to turn our farm into a sustainable organic farm and will hopefully be able to provide in the future grapes, kiwi fruit, and other items you can only buy in the stores. We will be selling to all the markets, so it will be first come, first serve: Blueberry bushes (1 gallon) $7.00 each Blackberry bushes (1 gallon) $7.00 each Pomegranate bushes (3 gallon) $25.00 each (1left) Goji berry vines (1 gallon) $10.00 And if you know we grow certain things and you don’t find them listed, please email me at abcnatur@gmail.com to inquire as to availability! We want to thank all that has helped our farm out during these trying times throughout the recession starting in 2007. But, we will still be around with the herbs, spices, citrus tre
