Champaign, OH: Giving Thanks
Just a quick note to remind everyone that we will not be opening the market, tonight. We will keep it closed until next Thursday evening, while you are all still in your Thanksgiving food love mode.
But, until then, I would like to say how thankful I am that you allow me to be your market manager. How thankful I am for amazing vendors, amazing customers, amazing products, and well, a sparkling YMCA staff!
This market is all about the love, all about the trust, the honesty, and the pride.
The market succeeds, grows, and grooves because of all of you!
For all of this, I am thankful.
Please, enjoy the upcoming holiday, the fellowship, the friendship.
We will see you, next week, as we open the market, again!!
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…

The first real cold snap of the year is finally here. This weekend will bring us the coldest temperatures we have had all season.

Just an FYI, here is the delivery schedule for the rest of November and the first week of December.
Clay Center deliveries: November 24 and December 1st, 8, 15, 22, 29th.
Manhattan Deliveries, November 21(winter market), 25th and December 5th(winter market), December 9th, December 19th (winter market) and December 23rd and January 2nd (winter market).
If you order by Friday night, I will have your order ready for Saturday at the winter market.
Orders due by 10 pm on Saturday.
