*VEGGIE TRUCK UPDATE: *
_WHOLESOME WAVE! _
We are thrilled to announce that the Veggie Truck Initiative in Harrisburg has been accepted as a partner by Wholesome Wave Georgia. This will double the value of SNAP benefits for folks who purchase fresh, local food from our farmers with food stamps at the Veggie Truck, starting in 2013.

VEGGIE TRUCK AT FIRST THURSDAY:
The Veggie Truck will do another fundraiser at the First Thursday event in Summerville on Dec 6. Another great way to make a gift to the community!

A-GUSTAVORE WINNER THIS WEEK: CURTIS!
Curtis is one of our young volunteers who helped shell forty pounds of pecans for our Nutcracker Fundraiser to benefit the Veggie Truck this week. Curtis will receive a limited edition A-gustavore tshirt for his great smile in this award-winning photo.

SEE YOU ALL AT THE MARKET ON TUESDAY!
