Halloween and we have pumpkins!

Here are some of the pumpkins I carved for the Flat Rock Market today. The super-happy one sold, but the other three will be haunting the Saturday Columbus tailgate market in two days!

We will have carved and not-yet carved pumpkins, pumpkins for pie, and pumpkins for painting, little, medium, and large pumpkins! So catch us at the Saturday at the Columbus farmer's market 8:00-11:30 on Halloween. If you miss us then, we'll still have some for Thanksgiving pies. Give me a holler and I'll set one (or more) aside for you.

We also still have lots of butternuts and acorn squash as well. We'll be bringing our butternut pie to the Columbus market to taste and I'll bring the recipes to share too. Discounts on orders over 20#!

Fall greens are still in season: turnips, white salad turnips, baby collards and kale, and my tasty fall salad mix. Next week (the 5th) is the last Thursday market in Flat Rock for the fall. We hope to see you there for the Market's Fall Festival that afternoon! We will be at the West Asheville Tailgate Market this Tuesday 3:30-6:30.

We will still have greens, pumpkins, and squash available for a while, so let me know if you need any. After the market ends, I would be happy to meet you for deliveries.

weeding...aggg!

Just reading about the Southern Sustainable Agriculture Working Group conference to be held in January http://www.ssawg.org/conference-program.html

Reading up on the offerings there, including some on weeding. Finally beginning to understand...Weeding is like dieting. there's always a new technique, you promise yourself to stick with it, but somehow, you never seem to get ahead of it.
