Certified Organic Produce for May 30/31, 2012
Hi All!
I have next weeks boxes all figured out. Please take a moment to look it over and reply to this email letting me know what you would like to have for next week by Friday night. Bob will be scouting FMO (the new farmers market in Springfield that he sets up at on Saturdays) this weekend looking for local certified organic deals for us to use in the boxes. So, something may change for the better. A lot of the small family farms that work with the small distribution network we use are coming back online and I am once again concentrating my efforts to utilizing produce from them over the big factory farms.
I have added some items to the bulk dry goods list below. I have also added a couple new trail mixes and have more in the works.
If you haven't already, friend us on face book where I post links to health info that you might find interesting.
Thank you so much for your continued support!
Blessings,
Wendy
