The Wednesday Market: Weekly Reminder
Good afternoon.
This is your weekly reminder that The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your order by Monday at 10 p.m. Orders are ready for pick up between 3 and 6 p.m. Wednesday. Be sure to check the website for all of this week’s listings. Here is the link: https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market
Thanksgiving has come and gone. We trust that all of you had an opportunity to visit with loved ones and had a chance to partake of the bounteous produce offered by our farmers. Our family celebration took place at my house this year, and it was a joy to welcome 17 members of the Dean clan for an evening celebration. I felt truly blessed and happy to be surrounded by them as we enjoyed the day together.
And now, a couple of items regarding The Wednesday Market “family”:
Please note that Stillmeadows Cabins is back, offering broccoli and lettuce. Welcome back, y’all!
Several customers have asked whether Concord Street Sweets has quit the Market. Thank you for asking. No, we have not – it’s just that we have been inundated with opportunities to cater. Please stay tuned. We will let you know when we will be listing our products again. We love our Market customers!
Thank you to all our customers for supporting locally grown agriculture and for choosing to buy locally.
We’ll see you Wednesday!
Thanks,
Beverly
Dawson Local Harvest: HOLIDAYS at the HARVEST!
The Dawson Local Harvest for December 4th
HOLIDAYS at the HARVEST!
SEASON’S GREETINGS, EVERYONE!
THE DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST IS OPEN. HARD to believe Christmas is just around the corner. The Christmas season is often a time of searching to find the right gift, coming up with new appetizers, and so forth. Fortunately, the Dawson Harvest can be of some help.
For the coffee-lovers in your family JAVA GENESIS has a couple of Christmas blend Coffees blended just for the Holidays, great for breakfast and with desserts, which you can find in the Coffee section.
HANALEI BATH always has really neat, natural soaps, bath salts, essential oils, and lots more. Special Holiday offerings include their Rosemary Peppermint Body Soap and Eucalyptus Spearmint Body Soap, priced just right for teachers, friends, as stocking stuffers, and more.
MY DAILY BREAD has fantastic Prepared Foods like Cheese Logs and such. My particular favorite is their Hot Pepper Peach Cheese Log which is fabuloue with crackers. They’ve got other choices as well like their Beer-Buzzed Cheese Dip. I always get a couple of different and delicious items for something easy and quick to serve. Great Cookies and Desserts, too.
FIVE HENS FARMS has a great Christmas Ham Steak using the simple recipe in the Ham Steak item description. They also have a full slate of free-range Beef including Steaks, Ground Beef, Roasts, and much more. They’ve even got Fido covered with Beef Dog Bones in the Pet section.
This is a great time of the year to review all the Market listings. There are an awful lot of gems out there that can help make your Holiday shopping easier.
THE MARKET IS NOW OPEN!
REMEMBER! You can order until Tuesday night at 8pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.
You’ll find the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST at http://dawsonville.locallygrown.net
We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible! We guarantee your satisfaction with all products in the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I enjoyed spending time with my family, cooking a lot of food, and snagged an amazing pie from a dear friend. So thankful for all we have.
There are some veggies available this week, and hoping to see spinach and additional varieties of lettuce soon.

ALFN Local Food Club: The Market Is Open
Good Day ALFN Members
I trust all of you had a relaxing and filling time with food and people. We are inside the holiday season, and the market is full of tasty options.
- Check out the mixed varieties of carrots from Great Day Natural Produce
- Willow Springs is back with some diverse tastes including Moringa roots, wild beautyberry jelly, watermelon radishes, cilantro, and lemon drop pepper jelly.
- Armstead Mountain Farm has some beautiful spinach and Napa cabbage for anyone with a hankering to make traditional Kimchi.
- Green Acres has a few new listings including organic Pork Ribs.
The International Climate Change Conference begins tomorrow in Paris. There seems to be more resolve from countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions with 95% of countries submitting reduction plans within their own borders. Unfortunately, climate change has been politicized in our country confusing the issue and rendering the science opaque. It remains important for large governments to provide tangible plans for action. Farming is chaotic enough without considering the potential shifts in climate increasing extreme weather events. With the warmest month on record since 1963, October was an example of shifts in weather patterns. These patterns are what give us plant hardiness zones as well as unique food cultures based on local flora and fauna. Keep your ears tuned to what happens this year at the conference. Of course, I have more confidence in local change driven by local producers and consumers, but we need the big global players to join reality.
Have a wonderful week.
