RVP market is Open!


Oops, with all the Thanksgiving Holiday preparations, I completely forgot about opening the Market on Wednesday evening. I hope you had a good time with family and friends. I appreciate your support throughout the years and I hope to be able to continue serving you.

It is an exciting time for me, at the farm. As of Thanksgiving morning, I made the final wiring connections on the new to me walk in cooler. The used 7 by 9 foot cooler is going to give us so much more room to store produce and give me some flexibility when picking and storing our produce we grow and sell.

I have had the cooler up for several weeks now, but last weekend I cut the hole and installed the new AC unit and Coolbot. A coolbot is an electronic device that tricks the AC unit into running lower than it normally should. With this unit hooked to an Air conditioner, we can cool the cooler to 38 degrees, or even colder. Check it out at www.storeitcold.com I am not finished with the build, I have some additional insulation to add and work on getting the door to seal better, but it is functional. I will be excited to see how it performs next summer.

Remember, orders are due by 10pm on Saturday.

Manhattan folks, you can preorder for the December 6th market this week or next week. It is your choice. Just select “Winter Market” as pick up location.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Jay, Linda and the kiddos
