Just a short message to let everyone know what is going on right now, on the farm. We are like busy elves, with quite a large difference this year. We are taking a pledge to only shop local this holiday season, to help our local economy. Since our wallets are tighter this year, than they have (ever) been, most of our holiday gifts will be handmade. We are hoping that others will follow suit and this holiday will be a happy one for small local businesses. Roses Ridge Farm will be at the following locations, for perfect holiday shopping:
Nov 19: Old Beach Green Market, Cypress Ave, VA Beach 9-1. The Farmers Market will also be going on across the street.
Dec 3-4 : Fair Trade Festival, Waterside Marketplace, Norfolk, VA
10th anniversary of this great event- lots of variety to choose from
Dec 17: Old Beach Green Market - same place, same time
The new holiday fragrances, Sugar Cookie and Cranberry Fig will also be available at these markets, as well as holiday gift packages.
Another great event is going to be Roses Ridge Farm's Handmade Holidays on the Farm. Everyone goes to cookie swaps but what about an ornament swap? Ornaments were always handmade in the old days...and they are calorie free.:-) Hoping to have a few people demo their craftiness, eat great food shared by all, fire, and drinks...if this sounds good to you, visit the event on Roses Ridge Farms FB page by Thanksgiving, and RSVP.
Happy Holiday crafting season!
