Growers News:

NOTICE…Several of our Meat Producers are offering sales, be sure to check them out.

Safe and Sound Soap Co.:

I have some brand new Laundry Soap scents this week!! I have been working on these scents for a while now. I’ve taken them with me to a couple of Pop Ups and they have done very well! These new Laundry Soaps are scented with my non-toxic fragrance oils. They are high quality, vegan, phthalate and paraben free, and formulated for sensitive skin! I have Sea Breeze, Clean Cotton, and Honeysuckle Breeze. All three of these scents will leave your clothes smelling amazing, without all of the toxic chemicals found in most scented laundry soaps. And, if you want to add extra scent to your clothes, you can also purchase my new Laundry Booster! This is made with sodium carbonate to add an extra deodorizing boost to your laundry routine. Just sprinkle a scoop (or two) on top of your clothes before starting your washing machine and let this booster powder deodorize your laundry and leave your clothes smelling so clean and fresh! I have these available in the same scents as the new Laundry Soap scents.
Don’t forget about my other all natural non toxic household products. My hand soaps and cleaning sprays are a great place to start if you’ve been looking for locally made non-toxic products. I’m also fully stocked in all of my Car Air Freshener scents! Grab one for yourself or for a friend! These Air Fresheners are the perfect gift as well.

Calico Farm:

This week we have several cookie options – gluten free & regular: chocolate crinkle (gf) and our popular thumbprint cookies returning: strawberry and…for the first time, raspberry! These buttery soft cookies have a generous dollop of organic jam waiting for you in the middle. Yum! All are sold in 6-packs.

We’re also restocked our salsa, so we have pints of both our organic mild and medium habanero available. Made with locally grown tomatoes, jalapenos & sweet bell peppers from Servant Farms in Watertown…there’s a reason these are customer favorites!

Finally, our famous scones are back, and this week we’re offering our lemon poppyseed for the first time. Bright, citrusy, light summer flavors that you’re sure to love. These are full-size scones sold in 3-packs for your enjoyment.

NashPhilly:

We are happy to be home from vacation and happy to be back doing what we love! Here are some new items we will be preparing for the market this week. A country style meat loaf served with a Coca Cola bbq sauce. We will be exploring recipes using the Sous vide cooking method and the first dish we have created are pork chops slow cooked in Italian herbs and lemon zest. Are you getting some delicious bread from anyone this week? Try our sun dried tomato pesto spread. Finally I am excited to feel the coolness of summer finally arriving. We will be rotating through our soup catalog until fall has fully arrived. Soup of the week will be New England clam chowder.

Our goats are managed as naturally as possible and free range on untreated pasture, during the day, under careful watch of our two livestock guardian dogs. At Windy Bluff Farm all of our Nigerian Dwarf Goats are Dam raised and handled multiple times a day.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse:

They say about perennial plants:
“First year they sleep,
Second year they creep,
Third year they leap!”

Most of the plants you have purchased from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse, particularly in early spring, have been early second year perennials. They are beginning to creep, meaning slow and steady growth, and flowering for their first season, after sleeping in the greenhouse last year and growing strong root systems. But I have a good stock of many of my perennials right now, and would like to offer these larger pants to you, after a second season of growth, for the same prices as the younger plants. Planted now and on into fall, they will put down strong root systems and be ready to leap into full growth and bloom for you next spring! Check through my perennial listings and see what you can use as fill-ins in bare places in your gardens.

I also have a good stock of full, healthy herb plants to add for culinary or medicinal use. I have one of the largest selections of herb plants in middle Tennessee. There is no need to travel to Nashville or Huntsville for those less common herb plants! And my plants are grown and nurtured right here in Coffee County, not in another state and shipped in to the big box store.

If you don’t have a place for herb plants, but you still want a stock of fresh herbs for culinary or medicinal use, please check out my Fresh Cut Herbs.

Periwinkle and Pine:

We are excited to showcase our new beautiful Lavender and Peony wreath, and our pretty summer Periwinkle Berry and Rose wreath. Every wreath in our shop is lovingly handmade.

Flying S Farms:

Several great vegetables to offer this week and our Chickens have slowed down again but we have a few HOT SUMMER layers! Weather plays a big factor in how they lay their beautiful Brown Eggs. Sour Dough Bread this week plain or fresh ground wheat. Unfortunately no sweet breads, set back is due to Ben’s changing treatment schedules! He is doing fine, they are adding more follow up test and so far so good.

Look forward seeing everyone Wednesday, August 14th when you pickup your orders.
We will always try and reach you as a reminder about your order, we can make arrangements for you to get your order to you. “If we do not hear from you, your order will be donated and you will be invoiced for the amount of your order”. We still need to pay our Growers for their products.
