MISC MARKET NOTES
If you’re always on the lookout for Low Carb, low sugar recipes using HEALTHY ingredients then check out LIL SLIPPER. Bethany’s wonderful food creations are an extension of her own health journey and her social media accounts share a multitude of wonderful things both learned and created in her own kitchen. Her recipe “shorts” are published on Facebook and Instagram, and the Facebook account contains a multitude of educational videos in addition to the wonderful recipes. Not every ingredient she uses works for every person and every dietary situation, but as a whole her kitchen creativity is nothing short of inspirational. Isn’t it nice to have options!
Mt. Moriah Farms: Recently I have found myself listening to many motivational speeches on YouTube. I’m also reading a book on “Growing Your Small Business”. There are times that I think about how easy my life would be if I didn’t try to run a business. It’s hard in life to be sure what exactly the Lord would have us be doing. As Christians we are stewards of two things… TIME & MONEY. I definitely want to be where the Lord wants me to be. I get easily overwhelmed with everything that I have going on and that is why I have been listening to those speeches. I need a pick me up some days and that’s exactly what I’ve been getting. I also have been quoting the verse “ “From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.”. Ps 61:2 I wanted to share this with y’all since I know we are fixing to enter to the busiest season of the year ??. Thank you for following along in our journey!

Martin's Farmstand: Cauliflower Bounty
Yesterday ’s harvest of cauliflower yielded about 450 lbs. This is available at the farmstand both as single heads and in bulk. (10 plus lbs. $1.50 lb.). This flush of cauliflower bounty was after very little cauliflower through most of the fall. Sometimes cauliflower seems to be a bit moody in that it can be sitting in the field giving nothing and then one day there is lots all at once. We also picked about 100 lbs. of green beans yesterday. (I had covered the plants). Winter is coming- enjoy good local food now! Daniel
