| June 12 | 2023 FATHER'S DAY GIFTS + LIVE MUSIC + FREE FERMENTATION WORKSHOP Father's Day is this coming weekend, and we have a variety of great gifts for the dad in your life; even if that gift is quality time. We welcome you to spend time with us on the farm for the free workshop on Saturday, or to just sit and enjoy the live music, birds chirping, and the beautiful flower gardens. Here are some great gifts ideas for the Dad in your life. All Natural Soaps + Shampoos Paper Plane (UK) offers a wonderful assortment of minimal ingredient soaps and shampoos. The Emergency Dad soap is perfect for Father's Day and even includes some classic Dad Jokes on the wrapping! Hand Painted Cards We have a selection of one-of-a-kind watercolor cards, from Swallow Run Designs (Concord, NC), ready to be filled with your heart-felt Father's Day message. A Man and His Condiments I'm not sure what it is about men and their condiments, but it seems they can't get enough of them (pardon the slightly sexist observation :). There are some great local sauces available in the market including BBQ (my hands-down favorite BBQ sauce), organic sriracha, organic taco sauce, and a variety of hot and dipping sauces. Spicewalla Spice Collections I have given these collections as gifts to multiple family members, and they absolutely love them. We have a nice selection of Spicewalla's (Asheville, NC) small batch spice collections: Grill & Roast for the grill master (just rated by Forbes as one of the best Father's Day gifts!); Sugar & Spice for the bakery lover; Ultimate BBQ for the smoke pit king; a Louisiana Collection for those deep south flavors; and Street Taco for... well, people who like street tacos. Chocolates Galore Ethereal Confections' (Woodstock, IL) organic chocolates are sure to please any sweet tooth. They offer a wide variety of bar flavors - whiskey- or coffee-infused, dairy-free options, a white chocolate with peppermint that is extremely creamy - as well as chocolate covered espresso beans and hot coco mixes. Come see all of the sweets we have to offer in the chocolate department. Handcrafted Wood Goods We recently began carrying handcrafted wood creations by Dewain's Wood Shop (Davidson, NC). Dewain makes beautiful cutting boards, coasters, planter boxes, wind spinners, and more! Leo of Holzwurm Wood Creations (Troutman, NC) uses his lathe and repurposed wood to craft a variety of bowls, plates, and birdhouses. Both of these gentlemen's work is beautifully and thoughtfully crafted. ALL WELCOME AT OUR FATHER'S DAY EVENT Join us this Saturday for the free fermentation workshop. Kits will be available for purchase if you want to take part in preparing your own fermented pickles to take home! We will also have live music and free samples. Bring a lawn chair, a picnic blanket, and grab some snacks, an old fashioned soda from the market, and enjoy some laid-back quality time with your friends and family. As always, pets are welcome, but must be leashed and cleaned up after. WEEKLY SPECIAL Weekly specials are back! This week we are featuring Cultures for Health (Raleigh, NC). This company offers a wide variety of starter cultures to make your own sourdough, kombucha, yogurt, and more. Enjoy 20% OFF all of our starter cultures this week only. AN EVEN BETTER PLANT SALE There is plenty of time to get a garden planted, and we still have a selection of vegetable and melon plant starts available. Starting this week, take 50% off all remaining: tomatoes, peppers, kales, broccoli, cauliflower, collards, Brussels sprouts, cabbages, squashes, and cantaloupe. We also have plenty of great seeds from Sow True Seed (Asheville, NC) that will germinate quickly with our long sunny days. ADDITIONALLY: All hanging baskets are now 20% OFF | All native and fruit trees, bushes, and plants, are 15% OFF (now through the end of June). Please note: sweet potato slips are not on sale.
