Wild Turkey Farms: WTF News- march 29, 2013

Happy Easter

Or is it Happy Noreaster???? Here's a run down of what's happening on the farm- it's been cold. That little blast of warm weather a couple weeks ago really put us in the mood for spring. Hopefully it'll be here soon.

We'll be back at the Davidson Farmers Market this Saturday 9-noon. This is an additional market day since we had an extra saturday in the month. Summer market begins in April!!!!

If you can't make it to DFM just give us a call and come by the farm 704-202-9348

Salisbury Farmers Market starts up April 20th- The market will be at the Wren House parking lot across from the library so come see us.
