MARKET NEWS
Lisa has bug repellent listed this week, just in time for those holiday outdoor activities: Fresh & Local — > Natural Pest Control — > Mosquito Repellant. Here is the description: Homemade using juices, extracts, and the Beauty Berry Plant in an Rubbing alcohol base to create the perfect body spray. Give it quick shake before spraying, and you may spray your hands and wipe your neck and face too. Reapply as needed. Mosquitoes may land on you, but will not like the taste of you. Another tip for you: Eat as many greens as possible, Mosquitoes are not vegetarians. lol… You will need an extra one to share with others when they learn you have the secret. Enjoy the outdoors again.

Also, Fred has lots of hamburger listed for your cook-outs next week-end.

Things I always buy through market and never at the store: hamburger, eggs, milk and butter – so very lucky to have healthy, local alternatives!

See you Tuesday!

Please contact grow@ranchoalegrefarm.com for questions pertaining to Market or Raw Milk. It is very difficult to return phone calls. Remember to interact with us on Facebook and follow us on Meetup to get notification on all our wonderful events and news. If you are interested in Goat’s Milk and can pick up any day but Tuesday, contact Nik The Goat Guy at 404-542-0981. Goats have to be milked every day and a week-end pick-up would be lovely. Please contact him first though, we can’t accommodate walk-ins due to hosting private events almost every week-end!
