*WELCOME BEAVER DAM FARM! *
Grass-pastured eggs are now available from our newest farmers, Eugene & Lucille Cheeks, at Beaver Dam Farm. Located in Keysville, GA, the Cheeks are a “retired” couple who have created an extensive, all-natural homestead on the beaver-dammed land they’ve had for 50 years. Welcome!

Big thanks to the Augusta Area Dieticians Association for their donation to purchase the locally grown vegetables we will use at this weekend’s “Souper Kids Cafe.” Big thanks also to Chef Charleen for creating original, veggie-based recipes for this kids cooking event.

A_GUSTAVORE WINNER THIS WEEK: RHONDA
For Halloween, Rhonda sent us a photo of herself cooking a “Frankensquash.” She writes: “Cross pollination in a friend’s garden resulted in squash plants that produce pale green fruit with a yellow squash shape and acorn squash ribs. The Frankensquash tastes like a zucchini, so I hope my garden produces more!” Rhonda will receive a limited edition A-GUSTAVORE tshirt for her winning photo.

THANK YOU LESLIE:
Thank you Leslie of Luna Bug Soups for giving me the gift of a stress-free, two-weeks-away-from-the-market. You are a gem.

SEE YOU ALL AT THE MARKET ON TUESDAY!
