Veggie Service Tuesday 11th February

[Julia Farmer]

Hallo Dear Friends 

Thank you so much for the amazing turn out for our first Farmer's Market at BSPCA last Saturday! It was a hot but wonderful day and I am very grateful to all those who supported my stall. I would also like to thank those who ordered from the Veggie Service, particularly for your patience while I was having problems with my vehicle. For next week's deliveries I have had made alternative transport arrangements and should have a new car by the end of next week! Please note that I will not be at the Education Africa Fair today as previously stated. Thank you for your understanding as always.

There are three exciting events taking place in March apart from our usual monthly market - please see the schedule below. I now have the poster for the Building Resilience, Growing Happiness, Together event which includes a motivational talk from yours truly and refreshments at The Patio Restaurant. Please find the poster attached, link to the FB event page, and more information on the event below.

Next month I will be hosting this unique event at The Patio. Many of you know that I have been through several major traumas in my life but still remain positive and happy - the Hero of my life and not the Victim. During our time together I will reveal the 4 keys to Resilience and Happiness despite what life throws at you! Relax and enjoy a welcome drink and a pizza from the selection available while you learn how to become the Hero of your life! Contact me on 71726027 to reserve your space. Thank you.
