If you're
into peppers of all descriptions you need to make a trip to the Northeast Farmers Market this Monday at Doko Meadows.
Julie Jones came by last
week and purchased some jalapeno
peppers from Grands Garden. She took them home and roasted them up, filled
them with cream cheese and added Tomato Ginger Jelly that
she bought from First Fruits Enterprises. What a
great combo!!
Come join
the folks that are finding wonderful fresh produce, SC Shrimp, fresh
breads and local honey at the market. Create a farm to table
recipe and let us know about it on the Northeast
Farmers Market Facebook page.
What a
great way to enjoy fresh and healthy products from our local
vendors!! We'll see you at the market!!
Remember
the NEFM is at two great locations
this year...Doko Meadows on Monday and Lake Carolina on
Thursday...both run from
3pm -7pm.
Look
who's coming to the market next week! We hope to see you there,
too!

Who Knew?
The Old Farmer's Almanac lists the traditional period of
Dog Days as
the 40 days beginning
July 3rd - August 11th, coinciding with the ancient
rising of the Dog Star, Sirius. These are typically
the days of the year with the least rainfall in the
Northern Hemisphere.

Thanks to the Blythewood Lions
Club there are many people who can now see clearly.
Through their numerous fundraising projects the Lions have raised
money that support those in our community with sight and hearing
impairments. This
year our Blythewood Lions Club is bringing the annual Night for Sight and Hearing Gospel Concert to The Manor at Doko Meadows.
What a great opportunity for everyone to come out and
listen to some great gospel music and make a difference for someone
who may need a pair of glasses or even eye surgery.
This year the
Night for Sight and Hearing
will be held at
The Manor at Doko Meadows
in Blythewood
August 25th
4:00pm - 6:00pm
Tickets are only $6 and can be purchased from Rhett
Hair @ 803.261.4758 or
fffiremedic19@ yahoo.com
Tickets may also be purchased at
The B.A.G. Shop
