Plattsburgh Online Ordering: Farmers Market Saturday
Reminder, though we aren’t doing the online orders yet, the Plattsburgh Winter Farmers Market will be Saturday, 10 to noon. We will have things there from North Country Creamery – yogurt (plain, maple, maple-lemon, maple-vanilla) or grass-fed beef (ground, breakfast sausage, mild Italian sausage, chorizo, and bratwurst) and veggies, eggs, chicken, and honey from Rehoboth Homestead.
We are all still so busy (and early evenings really crimp our work style) that we haven’t got the online listing updated, but we hope to for next week.

The Cumming Harvest - Closed: Happy Thanksgiving!
This is just a reminder that the market will be closed this week to enjoy time with family. We hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Also, we are still looking for a new location to have the market. We are so thankful to our friends, customers and landlord that generously donated our current spot to us for the last 4 years. The building is being sold and so its time to move on.
Ideally a new location would be in Cumming, a warehouse or shared business space with power would be ideal. We would only need to use the space one day a week. If you can think of any ideas let me know.
Again…Happy Thanksgiving!

Athens Locally Grown: ALG Reminder: We are closed this week!
Hi there! This is just a reminder that Athens Locally Grown will be closed this week to allow us all to celebrate Thanksgiving. If you need a last minute item from our local farmers, Heirloom Cafe on Chase Street will be hosting a mini version of the Athens Farmers Market from 11-2 on Wednesday.
If you’re still looking for inspiration and recipes, one of my favorite resources, Short Stack Editions, has you covered. Short Stack Editions are bi-monthly booklets that focus on a single ingredient. I’ve been a subscriber since they started, and I look forward to each one. They’ve collected their favorite Thanksgiving recipes in a single PDF and are also posting them individually on their blog, here: http://www.shortstackeditions.com/blogs/news.
I am very thankful for all the food options available to us provided by members of our community who care about the health of both the people eating the food they provide and the land from which it came from. And I find it very fitting that I get to express these thanks via a meal made from that very same food.
Thanks also to you, and happy Thanksgiving! We’ll see you in two weeks.
