SPECIAL GUEST: Happy Tails Rescue
|
Happy Tails Rescue Showcase returns to the market this Saturday! The Rescue Showcase will invite different animal rescue groups to showcase their adoptable animals on the first Saturday each month throughout the regular market season. The showcase was created so animal shelters and animal rescue groups can set up at the Phoenixville Farmers' Market, feature adoptable pets, and spread the word about their organizations and the work they each do.
THIS WEEK'S RESCUES

 DogsHome is a new and unique nonprofit rescue. What sets us apart from other rescues and shelters is that when you adopt from us, you get a dog who's already trained in the basic skills, and we give you our support throughout the dog's lifetime. Two weeks, two months, two years down the road ... if there's a problem, we're there to help.
Also, we're tackling the problem of homelessness from both sides: Not only do we rescue dogs from shelters, but we work to prevent them from being left at shelters in the first place, by going into homes and offering training and management strategies and, if necessary, rehoming the dog.
At DogsHome, we don't care about breed. We don't care about age. We don't care about color or size or physical condition. We go where we're needed.

Our mission is to rescue & find permanent homes for abandoned, stray and surrendered dogs in order to minimize the needless euthanizing of animals. Our vision is to make the right connections between our rescued dogs and families in order to give our dogs their final, happy & loving homes. TLC Rescue strives to be a valuable resource to our community by working with struggling dog owners and by providing education on responsible dog ownership including the importance of spaying/neutering, behavior training & microchip implanting.

Furnace Creek Farm offers medicinal and culinary herbs, as well as skin tonic, infused honey, and tisane made fresh from the farm weekly. We'll have another batch of our borage tisane, which has refreshing cucumber, lemon, and licorice notes, and a new tisane - marshmallow root! Our marshmallow root tisane is earthy, minty, and soothing to the body and soul. We will have three different kinds of infused honey: borage, feverfew, and tulsi. Stop by to say hi and chat about herbs!

Now Farmer Ike has a wee bit of an idea what it's like to be a rock star, as he has just appeared on this
cover article of Lancaster Farming (that's like Rolling Stone Magazine for the farming crowd!). It's a nice article focusing on some of the very unique projects we have going on here at NSO!
At market this week - aw, snap....Sugar Snap apples are in! This fan favorite 'reject' of the apple industry
(learn more here) is completely awesome and is in full glory right now. Sweet-tart, crisp, and juicy - get your Sugar Snap on this weekend! This will be the last weekend of Jupiter (and all) grapes, so don't miss those. We'll have a great supply of Hosui Asian pears, plus assorted veggies and cider as well.
