Opening Bell: New farmhand!
Good afternoon,
At 12:21am on Saturday July 11th, Steve and Carissa welcomed their new farmhand (grandson) into the world. Foster Ray Beagley was born in Augusta, Georgia. He is 17.5 inches and 5 pounds and should be discharged Monday morning. Pictures available upon request. :-)
Well, we knew it was coming, and now the heat of summer is here! Be sure to stay hydrated when you’re outside, and plan outdoor activities for early morning or evening when it’s not too hot. Make some frozen smoothies using cantaloupe, peaches, watermelon, or other frozen fruit. Or how about some iced tea with mint leaves? Whatever you decide, try to add some local produce to your cooling beverages.
Note from Hardin Farms: We apologize profusely for the mixup at Conway on Friday. Several days of working 18-20 hours finally caught up to us and we loaded up the wrong invoice for CLG. After all the rain, and now heat, our crops are maturing earlier than planned, which will shorten the season for corn. We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience.
Note from Barnhill Orchards: We are offering ingredients for a peach salsa, a garden veggie salsa, and a tomato salsa. We will also be offering fresh cut Zennia bouquets of various colors.
Come early on Friday for the best selection from the EXTRAS table.
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
