We hope you are warm and cozy and doing something fun indoors today. I’m about to fire up my kitchen and make some mulled cider to take to church this evening for our Christmas sing-a-long. And maybe we’ll have some chili and cornbread for supper.
Stay warm, and we’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly

Freezing, or near-freezing, temperatures are predicted overnight. Be sure to bring your tender plants indoors, and cover ones that you are not able to move inside. I have one last bloom on my beloved hydrangea, a wistful memory of sunny summer days. Now is the season for cloudy, rainy, and cold. We have our winter coats, hats, and gloves at the ready at my house. Soon enough, my kitchen will be full of warm, spicy and earthy aromas as I start preparations for the Thanksgiving meal.
May this Sunday find you in a warm and cozy place, with your favorite dog or cat curled up at your feet, and a steaming mug of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate to take off the chill.
Have a great day, and we’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly
Thanks for your patience! The Market is Open.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you for your patience with tonight’s delayed opening of The Wednesday Market. I have had one of those days where seemingly everything I touched went wrong. Technology is great, as long as it is working! And today my computer is on the fritz and I have struggled for hours with something that should take minutes to accomplish.
Anyway, at long last, the Market is open for orders. Please place your order by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 3 and 6 p.m. Wednesday. See the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link: https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market
I am hoping to get my computer back on line tomorrow, and I hope all of you have a great Sunday. We’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly
