Opening Bell: Enjoy some Early Season Goodness!


Good afternoon,

Wow, another week with 700 products listed! Right around the corner will be berries and summer squash too. Thanks Growers! There are several listings for bulk amounts so you can preserve the goodness by canning, freezing, or dehydrating. Enjoy the goodness!

SPECIAL NOTE: Backyard Gourmet, sponsored by the Library and La Lucha Space is on May 17 from 5-8 PM. This year we have a grant from the Department of Arkansas Heritage to celebrate Heritage Month with the theme: “Come to the table: Celebrating the flavors of Arkansas”. Our event is called “Beans, Greens and Cornbread” and we are inviting everyone to come to the library to celebrate our local food traditions with this free meal. This is also a dessert potluck, so bring a dessert to share!

We’ll have live music from Joe and Jeff, High Lonesome, and the Arkansas Country Dance Society. There will be a mini-seed swap and some seed saving demonstrations, plus winning photos from our photography contest.

Lots of great produce coming to the market every Friday. Come early for the best selection from the EXTRAS table.

Action: Please add your cell number to your account in case we need to contact you quickly regarding your order. Maybe you just left the market and we realize you accidentally left one of your items. This will allow us to call you before you get home. Email me if you would like me to add it for you. kirp1968@sbcglobal.net

The market is now +OPEN +for orders. Please check your email about 5 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!
Steve
