[Julia Farmer]

Hallo Dear Friends 

Hope you all had a great long week-end.  The second of our Preservation Classes was great fun last Saturday - you can see from the photos on my FB pages! We are now looking forward to the Baking Classes in August. Please see the schedule below and attached poster. If you would like more information please contact me on whatsapp 71726027. Thank you. 

Thank you for the orders I received for yesterday's delivery. We are back to Tuesday next week for the Veggie Service but you can also get your veggies and herbs fresh from the farm this Saturday at our Open Farm event and you can even pick your own young spinach! Please see information below and attached poster and maps to the 3 venues you can visit. 

 

Winter Open Farm, Craft and Pottery Event 

This time you will not only be able to see a wide range of unique winter vegetables grown using organic practices at my farm but you can also visit Matuti Craft Shop in Sentlane as well as Rika's Pottery Studio in Notwane (her shop will be open only). Please also see the poster and maps attached and contact Julia on Whatsapp 71726027 for any further information or to get the pin location for Kingfisher Farm. Thank you.

Veggie Service

As already mentioned, next week the Veggie Service is on Tuesday 29th July. Please could I have your orders for REWA and the payment to me by Monday, 28th July, 3pm. If you are new to this service please contact me on Whatsapp - 71726027 and I will send you the procedure for using this service. The procedure is also pinned to our Whatsapp group and it gives directions to REWA as well as the collection times so please read. Thank you.

Could I also remind you to keep your empty jam jars and plastic shopping bags so that I can re-cycle them - either drop them off at REWA or bring to one of the markets.
