Siloam Springs, AR: Online Market is Open!
www.siloamsprings.locallygrown.net
Pre-order your favorite items and pick them up Saturday morning, at the outdoor market between 9 a.m. and noon. Eggs are one item that sells out quickly – by pre-ordering you can reserve your eggs and pick them up before the market is over.
Hoping this week is as beautiful as the week we just completed.

NEWS AND NOTES
From Dogwood Valley Greenhouse:
With somewhat lower temperatures and lots of rain, now is a great time to get a jump on your spring gardening with perennial and herb plants and ferns. Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has a great Fall Special for you. Buy 3 perennial or herb plants or ferns (mix-and-match), and get one of equal or lesser value at no charge. The free plant is your own choice from my market list, subject to available stock. Sorry, lavender and rosemary plants are not included in this offer. Most of the perennials are out of bloom, but fall planting will give them a chance to develop good strong root systems to allow for great spring bloom. Please add a message on your order including your first, second, and third choices for a free plant. We also have a few gorgeous large hanging baskets which, although not included in the special offer, will really add color to your porch or patio.
We still have lots and lots of summer vegetables on the market. This week we have zucchini, tomatoes, summer squash, red potatoes, peppers, onions, okra, lettuce, cabbage, and cucumbers. Local milk and eggs; pork and chicken cuts; and more are available here! Three types of dried herbs and eight of fresh are also available to flavor those dishes! We have lots of homemade herbal products too.

Dodgeville, WI: Market Week Aug 23
The rain this past week provided much needed moisture. However, I think it may have been too late for some of the vine crops like cucumbers. We hope that the plants come back and set more blossoms and fruit in the next couple of weeks. Raspberries will be the special treat of this fall and are starting to turn red.

Good evening everyone!
We are excited to welcome Rocky Glade Farm back with lots of beautiful fall vegetables and honey.
Erdmann Farm has peppers and tomatoes and cucumbers still, so be sure not to miss out on the end of the season crops still producing.
Fountain Springs will be away for two weeks and will process fresh chicken in that time and we look forward for them to be back.
Casey Family Farm has DELICIOUS cream line cow’s milk!
Uptop Farm has fresh eggs.
Three quick notes:
THANK YOU to everyone who continues to help this market succeed. We are working very hard to bring some of the BEST, organic, and local farm goods from people with a genuine love for all they do and the products they provide.
Second, we are working with Parker Family Beef, from McMinnville and they will hopefully be listed by next week. Please take a moment and read the about page on parkerfamilybeef.com .
Third,
This is your market and we are proud to be a part of this. Please help us spread the word about how easy it is to order and pick up so many weekly necessities. Best of all, it is a solid vote for small business and small agriculture. The more customers who support, more and more vendors will come to provide what is wanted and needed.
Thank you all so much!

Carolina Foothills, SC: Market is Closed
Hello,
I need to keep the market closed again this week. I have a “meeting” on-line Tuesday with my youngest son’s teacher so she can test him and I don’t know how long it will actually take.
The market will reopen next week. These “meetings” are expected I just never know the day/date until it is given.
Thanks,
Susan.
