Happy Halloween!


We love to get pictures of our pumpkins, carved by our customers!  We met Alexandra through Facebook, she had seen some info on the 'Stock the Food Bank's Pantry' and posted on our Wall that she was so happy to find a great way to donate to the Food Bank.  She and her partner arrived at  Saturday's market with a very generous donation!  We had a great time with her and her partner (whose name I cannot remember, to my great chagrin); introducing them to all our different potato varieties and all  the types of squash laid out.  They actually had to leave to find a banking machine they were so enthusiastic about all the good food!  They left loaded with goodies, including two of our nice carving pumpkins.   We asked for pictures, as is our habit, but they wouldn't promise as they hadn't carved a pumpkin in years!  Well,   the proof is in the pictures and these two have talent!   Love it!

 To everyone: Have a scary, spooky and safe evening!

Spooky Pumpkins



We grew some beautiful pumpkins this year: good sizes, nice deep colour, few blemishes or flaws. We've distributed a few - sales at the Farmers Market, some gifts to 'carving' friends (Happy Birthday, Mac!) We asked, when possible, for some pictures! Last night, the pictures started to arrive and boy, do we know some creative carvers, or what? The first picture is from our pals Calla and Joe, the second is from F.M. customers Connor and Jason, carving courtesy of Jason, apparently. Farmer Man hasn't carved his yet, and we're hoping from pictures from a few more pals, so we'll keep you posted! In the meantime, have a scary good Halloween!
