Veggie Service on Tuesday 30th December. More veggies for the New Year!

[Julia Farmer]

Hallo Dear Friends 

Hope you had a wonderful day yesterday! Thank you for all the Veggie Service and Mince Pie orders for this week. So far I have baked nearly 400 mince pies and had to turn away a few orders as the deadline was last Friday. However, I have decided to re-open the orders today as I will be baking a limited number over the week-end. So get your orders in fast if you would like some mince pies to collect on Tuesday with the Veggie Service (see attached poster for prices).

I am pleased to announce that even more veggies are now ready for harvesting! In addition to our lovely Mixed Lettuce and English Pumpkin, we now have a few butternut, Barbara butternut, yellow marrow and egg plant (see full list below). I am also continuing the Special on mixed cherry tomatoes ! This week the Veggie Service will again be at Kgale Spar Shopping Centre car park between 3 and 4pm for you to collect your orders. 

The next Veggie Service is thus on Tuesday 30th December so you can get your fresh, organic veggies and herbs for your Christmas lunch! Please could I have your orders and the payment to me by Monday, 29th December 3pm. Thank you.
