Veggie Service Tuesday 3rd March, BSPCA Market Saturday 7th March.

[Julia Farmer]

Hallo Dear Friends 

Firstly, I would like to thank all those who made orders from the Frozen Meal Service and will be collecting at the market next Saturday. At that market and beyond I will be taking orders for collection at our April Easter Market. I will remind you about how to order and what is available in our next newsletter.

March Farmer's Market at BSPCA Animal Shelter

Secondly, our market for March is next Saturday and it's going to be marvelous! Lots of exciting new stalls as well as your old favourites. As usual by attending these markets you are not just supporting local entrepreneurs but BSPCA, an organisation which does so much for our fur babies in and around Gaborone. Here is the link to the FB event page:
