Eggs

Hermida's cel has been down for a few weeks now. 

If you are trying to reach her for eggs please email me or call Ralph Smith's cel in the local book. 

I would list my number but telemarketers are a pain when they get your number. 

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Late Requests for Dairy & Baking Orders (plus other farm updates)

Hope you are all okay out there and hopefully not enjoying dinner by candlelight tonight! (It's romantic the first night, right?)

We are able to slip in some late orders this week if all are received Wed. morning, so please let us know if you'd like any changes to your local milk, yogurt or True Grain bakery orders this week.

Compost - our first order of compost was delayed last Friday due to some issues with the delivery truck. Stay tuned for an update. Deliveries will happen weekly over the course of 4 weeks once we begin again later this week.

Easter Weekend Flowers - in time for the Easter weekend, we'll be stocked up on all kinds of edible goodies, but also... our tables will be full of basket and planter stuffers and other annual flowers.

Grocery home delivery requests by Thursday evening please and thanks!

With thanks from your Local Farmers!
