Spring is definitely getting nearer…. Daffodils have exploded this week and shrubs are beginning to bloom… The growers and makers at RCM have been busy bees, too! It looks like Drewry Farm and Orchards has lots of things started in their greenhouse! They even have some early tomato plants for sale! Look for new candle scents from Drewry and Meadowlark, too! Welcome our newest maker, Red River Fiber Arts who will be offering hand crocheted items; check out the nifty soap saver in the Farm Crafts category! As usual, we have a great selection of local beef and we will still have chicken available from Christal Fields. However, they are changing their farm schedule and will now be selling chicken only on the second Tuesday of each month.
