CLG:  Strawberries! Tuesday Reminder - Market Closes Tonight after 10pm.


Hello friends!

There’s still time to place your order for pickup this Friday, May 11th.

Strawberries! Since we don’t currently have a Grower that produces Strawberries, I have arranged to have my friend, Brian, pick Strawberries for us from Goodson Farm in Damascus, Arkansas. He will pick them Friday morning and have them at market Friday afternoon. They will be $5 per Quart, and $20 per gallon. To get an idea of how many he should pick, please add a note to your order, or text me at 501-339-1039.

The market closes TONIGHT after 10pm, maybe even midnight! Come early on Friday for the best selection from the Extras table. See you Friday!

Middle Tennessee Locally Grown:  Don't Forget to Place Your Order!




Manchester Locally Grown market





We always have a few new farmers, waiting their turn to join our market and offer their wonderful products to all our customers. In order to add more farmers, we feel it would be best to grow our customer base a bit. We want to be able to offer you and your friends some new local farm products.

The farmers and market managers would really appreciate your efforts to help spread the word about our fantastic market. What a great local resource for fresh, local farm products. Please pick up a few business cards to hand out to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Advertising is very expensive, and we want to use our slim market funds in a responsible manner.

Good evening!




This is just a friendly reminder to place your order online by 10 pm tomorrow evening. It seems as though every week, someone says, “I meant to order last week, but forgot till about 9:45.”

Well, that’s fine, for two reasons:
1. Every single order placed before I close the market will be filled, unless the farmers run out of some items; and

2. I never close the market at 10:00 sharp. It just doesn’t happen (and to those who know me, that comes as no surprise.) It may be closer to midnight before it gets turned off. However, it’s better not to put off ordering, because some items may be sold out.

Lastly, remember to hit that last “submit” button. I really dislike it when someone gets to market, only to find no order in their name because they didn’t hit the last button. When your order is placed, you will receive an email confirmation. If for any reason you fail to receive it, please contact Linda as soon as you realize it’s missing.

Also please go to our Facebook page & like, comment, and share this week’s post. Facebook isn’t allowing me to post on multiple sites, or post multiple photos. So please help us spread the word

See you on Thursday!


Blessings,
Michael & Linda
