It seems that nearly ever week, or every day, another report about what is in the food we consume makes headlines. It is not surprising, then, that more and more people are becoming concerned about what is really in their food. Are you becoming concerned about what is really in your food? If so, you might want to consider the following:
If you make your purchases at the grocery store you will likely not be able to learn much at all about how the items were produced. Not so when making your purchases at our market. Our vendors welcome your questions about their production methods. Our vendors are so proud of their production practices that they are happy when customers make inquirers. And remember, all produce sold at our market is grown using no synthetic chemicals and the meat and eggs are from pastured livestock who receive no GMO feed.
In addition to obtaining information from the vendors, you are welcome to stop by the market management booth to ask questions about any aspect of the market. We love to brag about our Very Valued Vendors and their superior products that make LEWFM so great.

Yellow Creek Weavers will have 2 new rugs debuting this week--a reweave on Artist's Palette and restock of AZ Sky. If you have not yet purchased a handcrafted rug from Mari Ann because you think handmade crafts would be too expensive, please stop by Mari Ann's booth. You will be pleasantly surprised about how affordable the rugs (and other items) are. Mari Ann believes everyone should be able to have quality handcrafted rugs for their home; therefore, her prices are quite reasonable. You can even request specific colors to match your home decor.
