CLG:  Thank You Note: NO MARKET


Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!

I hope you will all have a chance to get a little bit of rest and enjoy some time with loved ones. The market will be closed for Thanksgiving, but this pause always gives me a chance to thank everyone for being part of this community and participating in the local food movement.

As you know, I am a firm believer in how small, local actions make big, global change. And I am passionate about local food because we all eat, everyday! So each bite is a chance for us to make an impact in our community and the world.

You might think I am exaggerating, but let me tell you about just a few ways in which your participation makes a difference. When you buy local food:

-you are benefiting your body by giving it fresh, nutrient rich fuel, that was grown for taste and nutritional quality, rather than to maximize the time it can stay on the shelf.
-you are contributing to the local economy, creating new jobs, supporting fair wages, and helping dollars stay in our community.
-you are supporting small, sustainable agriculture, and cutting down on all the resources needed to package, warehouse, transport and display food.
-you are getting to know people, building interpersonal relationships, making our community more resilient and, let’s face it, having fun!

So I want to extend my sincerest gratitude to all: the farmers who grow our food, the customers who support the market, the volunteers who help things run smoothly, the church that hosts us, and everyone else who, in big and small ways, make Conway Locally Grown not just a market, but a community.

Have a happy Thanksgiving and don’t forget to order next Sunday!

More Love,
Sandra

If you Want to pick up the order at the Chillax Drum Circle in the Villages Sunday Afternoons, just let me know so I can bring it along.

I may still be able to take orders after Thursday Morning but can’t guarantee availability of things as I may have already packed them for the Restaurants.
Ordering window is Monday Afternoon (or when I open it) through Thursday Morning and pick up will be Friday-Sunday by appointment until we expand more, Please indicate when you would like to pick up when you place your order.

I’m repeating myself now…..

Remember to tell me when you want to pick up! (and if I don’t reply to confirm within a day, bump my e-mail or text me 407-342-8515. Though I have cleaned up my e-mail so hopefully I won’t Miss Anyone.)
