Heifer part 2

Last weeks Farmers Market was our "Heifer Market" where we give 100% of our sales to Heifer International. A wonderful aid program that gives livestock and training to impoverished families throughout the World. It again was a fantastic success. Our Thanksgiving market has come to be one of our biggest of the year. I was a bit nervous because of possible rain, but the morning came and it was beautiful blue sky above. Our local community showed up to the market in droves and we sold almost every bit of produce we brought. We went home with one basket of garlic and 5# of butternut squash. We set a new record and we're overjoyed that we can help so many people all over the World with our gift to Heifer. Our gift will be 21 flocks of Chickens, 21 flocks of Ducks/Geese, 4 honeybee hives, 4 groups of tree seedlings, 2 pigs, 2 goats, and 2 sheep. All in all it with help 56 families help themselves to rise out of poverty. Then the extra wonderful part is those families are required to give offspring and knowledge to others in their community making the gift eventually reach 112 families. It's Heartwarming to know that in some small way I can help others, with not just one time food aid, but aid that last's lifetimes. Thank you to all our customers who make this possible.

Giving Thanks,
