Champaign, OH:  Autumn Almanac

From the dew-soaked hedge creeps a crawly caterpillar
When the dawn begins to crack, it’s all part of my autumn almanac
Breeze blows leaves of a musty-colored yellow
So I sweep them in my sack, yes, yes, yes, it’s my autumn almanac
Friday evenings, people get together
Hiding from the weather, tea and toasted
Buttered currant buns, can’t compensate
For lack of sun because the summer’s all gone…
(Autumn Almanac-The Kinks)

So, hello there, November…just last night, I was passing out candy, downtown, for the trick or treat fun. This past weekend was all about October, Halloween, costume changes, and then at midnight, last night, the clouds drifted over the moon (of which, did you SEE the moon? As I was on my way home from candy fun, I watched the most amazing dusting of clouds over a misty sort of moon…perfect), and we became November.

So, my groove of choice, this morning, this Kinks classic, was perfect for ushering in the last of the wispy leaves, the last of the warmish days, cool nights, and all the comforts that you reach for, at this time of year.

All of the outdoor markets are now closed, and once again, your little local market of love becomes front and center…all year. Every week. Local goodness. One click away.

So, to celebrate the new November month, why not place an order…you have until 8am, this morning…

We look forward to seeing you…

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

Miami County Locally Grown:  A New Winner, and a Big New Supporter

First, CONGRATULATIONS to Sandy Ehrlich, the winner of October’s Refer-a-Friend drawing! Keep those referrals coming, and we’ll draw again in November… just in time for Christmas shopping!!

Martha Pierce of Huber Heights was searching for a source of raw, local honey when she heard of the Virtual Market – and instantly fell in love with its convenience. “I’m not comfortable on computers, and I had no trouble at all. It’s so easy!”

Going home with the intention of finding a local supplier, I’m so grateful Martha encouraged him to check whether he could source the pumpkins through the Virtual Market, as she had just read all about Jack DeFord of JM Gardens in our most recent Vendor Feature, and wanted to support “that nice boy” :-)

And you know what? A simple inquiry to the Market Manager, and we seamlessly coordinated the delivery of every pumpkin JM Gardens had left on the Casstown family farm!

As President of the Trotwood Chamber of Commerce, among many other involvements, Jim is a huge supporter of local networking and supporting area businesses. “You’re building a community around a unique start-up business that fills such a necessary niche. I’m glad we were able to support each other, and hope to do so again in the future.”

Now what if more businesses Looked to Local for business luncheons? Appetizers at a meeting? Decorations for the seasons? Maybe you turn to local businesses when you think about it – but do those businesses use local ingredients and local supplies? And when I say local, I mean foods that were actually grown here in our region!! Not simply prepared here, or processed here!!

The networking potential is enormous -

What an impact we could make with our food dollars to truly support OUR producers and help build businesses the community can be proud of. And honest-to-goodness Homegrown products. We have the opportunity to breathe new meaning into the concept of LOCAL – just ask Martha, Jim, and all the kids who enjoyed a wonderful program last night :-)
