Green Fork Farmers Market:  Order reminder

Dear Green Fork Farmers Market Customers,

Don’t forget to place your order today for tomorrow’s market! We will not have a market next week, so make sure you stock up. Our next market will be Wednesday, November 19.

We will leave the online market open today until 2:00 pm so you have time to get your order in. If you have already ordered, go ahead and place another one if you need to get enough to make it until the 19th. Your second order will be added to your first.

We also have a couple of new items added to the market that weren’t included in this week’s order list—Figgieville has their full line of olives back in stock, and they are also offering their delicious handmade almond torte (it’s gluten free!)

If you aren’t able to order, stop by tomorrow to shop at the market. We will have chicken, pork, beef, lamb, duck eggs, fermented sauerkraut and jalapenos, olive oil, salsa, vegetables, and herbs. You can also meet our new vendor, Tim Slape with Diamond T Meats!

Thanks so much for shopping with us. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm, week of Nov2 2014

A very busy week here at Old99 this week, so not much time for finding juicy food news on the web.

The bad news is that our last cow to calf, Princess Scruffy, freshened on Friday with a stillborn calf. That’s my first experience and thankfully the vet was able to get here quickly. Scruffy is still running a fever so it’s not over yet.

The good news is there are lots of veggies and eggs, beef, lamb and chicken in the freezer.

We still have tomatoes, eggplants, peppers as well as the root crops like carrots and celeriac.

Hope to see you thurs.

Healthy eating,
Ian and Camelia

Champaign, OH:  Your Song

And you can tell everybody this is your song…
It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done…
(Elton John – Your Song)

Your Song…everyone has a song inside of them, yes? I like to think so. I like to think that no matter what, each of us, has a song to sing, a tale to tell, and story to share. This is what I love about people, about life…I love the history and richness and colorful songs that we all have inside.

This song always reminds me of a little dimly lit bar that I used to frequent when I lived in Los Angeles. It was an old school bar that housed a piano and a piano singer. Not the trendy piano bars of today. This was a red velvet, smoke filled, mirrored walls kind of piano bar.

I had a friend who would fly in from London, we would hit the out of the way spots off of Melrose, buried away, and discuss life, the city,life, where life was taking us. This little bar was a perfect place for inspiration. You went there to drink, to listen, to plan, and to get your own song out…because everyone has a song.

This little local market has become my song, of late. I have been singing it’s praises, all over. Along with your two assistant managers, we have all been out and about, singing your praises, getting the word out.

Recently, I have been hitting the speaking circuit with your assistant manager, Mark, from Oakview Farm Meats.

Charlene continues to sing your praises and our market fun to the physical markets and all who she comes into contact with.

We all have a song, we all have a story, and we are all about singing it out, singing it proud, and singing loud about this market.

Today found Mark and me at Urbana University. Friday, we travel to the University of Dayton for the Montgomery Food Summit. On Monday, we travel to Union County to speak to their local food council. It’s exciting times, and there is plenty to sing about!

Be excited, be proud, and get involved in being a part of this market! I cannot sing the praises of this market, enough!! I find myself talking, at great lengths, out to the masses, about this market.

Please, take a minute, find your song, find what drives you, find your passion…and sing it to the world.

If you are a market customer, I am now singing the praises to you…our loyal customers are out in full force, this week, but you know what…we have an AMAZING amount of new, first time customers!! Our family grows, expands, sings their songs.

It is Monday evening, you have time to sit and make this your ONE STOP, EVERYTHING STOP to shop for the week!!! We now offer it all…for you…we can do it all while you are out singing your song…

A few things to point out….

Frozen red raspberries have been added by Champaign Berry Farm!!

Lovely carrots have been added by our End Of The Road Farm!!

Gift boxes have started to make the scene for your holiday gift buying!!

Give us a look, sing us your song, join in the local family…

Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam
