Take me to the Market.
Joyful Noise Acres Farm: The market is open for ordering.
Good morning,
6 more days, just 6 more days. I am so excited about Thanksgiving Day. Today I will finish making the grocery list because the menu is basically set in stone! I hope each of you have a wonderful, gratitude filled week.
We should have fresh corn meal here on Tuesday, I know we have been missing Burr Stone Milling’s meal. Our favorite miller had been under the weather and is now back to full health and catching up on his milling.
We are getting about a dozen eggs a day now so you will start to see more eggs on the market. Yea!
Remember we are opening early on Wednesday, 10:00, so we can get to our holiday preparations.
Blessings to all and thank you for supporting all these local growers.

Republican Valley Produce: RVP Online Farmers Market is NOW OPEN!
I am trying to get back in the swing of things, but still struggling to remember that I backed up the market opening one day. Reminder, orders need to be in by Saturday at 10pm. If you are in Manhattan and placing a preorder for pick up at the winter market in Pottorf Hall at CICO park, please have your order placed by 5 pm on Friday please.
We have taken a hit on some produce, but I hope we have enough planted to carry us through. We aren’t suppose to have single digit cold in November!
I hope we can get some milder weather in for the next few weeks, we need it.
Thanks!
Jay, Linda and the Kids

Group Buy : Wilderness Family Naturals
This weekend we will be taking orders for organic pantry items from Wilderness Family Naturals. These items include healthy oils, spices, cacao, grains, rice, coconut products, natural sweeteners and skin care products. We will also take orders for bulk Organic Mixed Nuts -Raw from Nuts.com since WFN is out of bulk soaked & dried mixed nuts.
Case Pricing for Organic Raw Mixed Nuts
In order to get a reduced price on the mixed nuts we need to order 25lbs as a group. This delectable combination of raw organic mixed nuts includes organic cashews, Brazil nuts, walnuts, almonds, pecans, pistachios, macadamia nuts, and filberts that are sure to please.
I recommend soaking as Sally Fallon and the Weston A. Price Foundation suggests, and then dehydrated at low temperatures to make your own crispy nuts.
All prices on the website include discounted bulk pricing, taxes, fees and shipping.
THIS ORDER WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO PICK UP THIS TUESDAY
This is a pre-paid pre-order. Payment is expected by this Tuesday. I will send out an prior to pick up when it is available. Due to shipping it can take up to 2 weeks before you can pick up.
