December 5th - $200,000 in sales!
With this Tuesday's orders, we broke $200,000 in sales this year! That's $200,000 that stays in the local economy, supporting our wonderful farmers and food businesses! Woo hoo!

Thanks to Helen from Food Connects for allowing me to drop by to check out the BAMS Buying Club operations - it was fun to see all the great local products on offer!

Holiday closures: Please note we will not be delivering on Friday, December 26th. If you are a regular Friday customer, please order extra on the 19th, or on the 23rd if you're also on the Tuesday delivery route. We will be making deliveries on Friday, January 2nd, but the order deadline will be Monday, December 29th. I will send out reminders as the time gets closer.

Available this week we have: kohlrabi, parsnips, radishes, spinach, potatoes, pie pumpkins, winter squash, beets, carrots, onions, rutabaga, celeriac, kale, sweet potatoes, spicy greens, fresh herbs, trail mixes, bread, bagels, yogurt, pudding, cheese, granola, maple syrup and local eggs and meats.

December Harvest of the Month is Winter Squash. Be sure to check out the website for recipes, activities and more. 2015 HoM calendars are now printed so make sure you get yours. You can buy them through WFF and the proceeds go to Food Connects. They make great gifts.

Please note that The Gill Greenery Sprouts are only delivered on Tuesdays - so Friday orders must be in on Monday. And Four Star Farms only delivers on Wednesdays - so Friday orders in by Monday and Tuesday orders will be delivered Wednesday or Friday. Apologies for inconveniences as we do the best we can given the logistics!

Please do spread the word about WFF to others who may be interested in supporting the local food economy.

Thanks again!
