Market Reminder


ALFN Members,

Remember to finalize your order in the market before tomorrow at noon. Squash has officially arrived in the market! Welcome summer squash…welcome Spring!

News

I’m saddened to announce one of our growers was vandalized this past week. Debe Hudson with A B C Nature Greenhouse & Herb Farm had a vandal ruin one of her greenhouses by ripping the plastic, disabling the wood burner, and leaving the doors open during a freezing event over the evening. Unfortunately, most of Debe’s plants were killed due to the loss of heat. As many of our farmers know, the early part of spring is a time to get a head start on the market and provide produce as early as possible. This damage has put Debe back on the season, and she will not be able to sell any plants until the middle of the season. In a local economy, when a producer suffers, we all suffer for them. Let’s find ways to wish Debe the best and support her as she works to overcome the setback.

Take care,

Kyle Holton
