The Weblog

Welcome to the Carolina Foothills Locally Grown weblog. Mainly this is a collection of e-mails that we send out each week to kick off the market, but also tells the tale of our little market.

Growers/producers may list their available products at any time now. To be available for each weeks market they must be posted no later than 8:00pm on Friday.

The site will be opened for shopping Friday evening at 9:00pm and remain open for shopping until 4 pm Monday afternoon.

Growers will drop-off their orders from 3:30 to 4:00 pm Tuesday & Wednesday. Customers can pick-up their products from 4:30 to 6:30 pm Tuesday and Wednesday (depending on pick up site).

Customers and growers please double check your drop-off and pick-up locations. Customers, you can specify your pick-up location when you order.

The crackle of leaves underfoot. Look at the effortless mulching the earth moves into this time of year. As wind spreads a blanket of leaves to protect leaving no bare ground. Energy moves down through roots and earth. Dying to what was once abundant above the ground.

Now it’s time to sheet mulch as the soil wakes up and works non-stop towards new life yet to come. Sow your cover crops now.

And remember that your Farmers still grow for you! Hoop houses and hydoponics, all to extend the season and protect newly planted fall/winter food. Abundance extended!

Harvest what your Farmers have worked so hard
to provide. So much food ! And lots of handcrafted products as well.

Love your Farmers, buy their offerings!

Market opens this evening at 8:00.
