Market News


Hello!

Thanksgiving is almost here! We hope you are all preparing for as much local goodness as possible! We will have a lot of great items available for you Thanksgiving week. Please remember that delivery day will be Tuesday, November 20th at Trinity from 4 – 6. If you have ordered a Wedge Oak Farm turkey, that is when they will be available for pick up.

ALSO! We have two amazing opportunities to pre- order items that will both add amazing deliciousness to your holiday festivities, and ease your work load – what an amazing combo! I am sold already!

Dozen Bakery is making perfectly beautiful and scrumptious pumpkin pies . These need to be ordered this week for delivery next Tuesday.

And – what an amazing opportunity this is – you can pre-order your Thanksgiving cheese assortment from The Bloomy Rind this week for pickup with next week’s order. Kathleen will assemble a selection of Southern and American artisan cheeses and include some preserves and marcona almonds. All you need is a cutting board or platter and a knife. There are two options: 3-cheese selection (approx 12 oz of cheese, ideal for 6-8 people) OR 5-cheese selection (approx 20 oz of cheese, ideal for 8-12 people). Cheeses will vary based on availability and what’s tasting great in the case. There’s also an option for a full round of Rush Creek Reserve (approx 12 oz) that includes preserves and almonds. Again – orders for these cheeses and the pumpkin pie need to be in THIS week for pickup the week of Thanksgiving.

Please remember we’ll be under the Trinity Church porch!

Thanks so much for your support, and we look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee
