WMM's Winter Schedule

Now through April:

In Farmington:
- Friday pick-up on Front Street will involve meeting at Deborah's Prius in the Better Living Center parking lot, with no outdoor farmers' market in progress. The time frame for pick-up there is shorter. Orders will be ready by 11:00, and we ask that you pick up before noon or call to make arrangements for later.
- Self-service order pick-up later in the day will continue to be available at LEAP's offices near the hospital.
- Saturday pick-up in Farmington is now at the indoor farmers' market at 130 Quebec Street, 10am-1pm.

Other locations:
- Friday pick-up and delivery orders for most locations will be available earlier in the day - closer to 1-2 pm than 3-4 pm.
- Rangeley option of meeting our volunteer will be available again starting next week.

From The Raw Milk Institute: "Milk kefir is a fermented probiotic drink that is renowned for its healthful properties. Studies have shown that milk kefir is correlated with a wide range of health benefits, including improved digestion [1], lower blood pressure and cholesterol [2], cancer prevention [1], improved immune systems [3], and reduced asthma and allergies [2]. Milk kefir is a thick and slightly effervescent drink, with a sour, creamy taste. "
