Happy Shopping!

Cumberland County, TN:  Hello from CSFM


This is a note to apologize for this year not working out. I made excuses waiting on the farmer that said he would provide all the varieties of fresh veggies and then he decided to sell them himself at the glade. I didn’t know what to do and didn’t want to tell everyone about this, so I tried to raise enough to sell but that didn’t happen. Thank you to the growers and customers that did participate. I wish you all the best and will be closing the market permanently.
