Opening Bell: Bacon, Peppers, Honey, Pork!


Good afternoon!
Dry, dry, dry! Despite the lack of rain, our Growers are still producing some excellent food. Purple hull peas are being harvested around the area. And Bar C Farm is having a sale on Fresh Sides Bacon and Ground Pork. Time to fill your freezer!

Have you tried the Chocolate Drop Sandies from Julie’s Sweet Shoppe yet? You probably should. #winkwink

Rockwood Crafts has just listed several new items. Lots of smell-good stuff. I wash my hands with the Butt Naked Exfoliating Sea Salt Scrub after I clean fish. Quickly removes any fishy smells.

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. Over 600 items available now!

Most items are listed by 6pm Sunday, but check back again before the market closes Tuesday night to see if any other items are ready to be harvested for you! Eat fresh! Eat local! Eat for better health!

And save your eggshells throughout the week for the laying hens! :-)

The market is now OPEN for orders. Click here to start shopping:

Please check your email a few minutes after you place your order to make sure you get an order confirmation. Thank you for being a valuable part of CLG!
Have a great week!
