Thanksgiving


Good Morning from the South Cumberland Food Hub. My favorite holiday is almost here! I like to remember that our early ancestors set aside this day to show their thanks for the simple things in life- food, shelter, friendship and freedom. During this holiday think about the things you are thankful for and focus on how Blessed we are to have the simple things. Many people around the world don’t have any of the things I mentioned above. Despite certain things, it is still good to be an American.

We will be closed for the holiday and will re open the week of Dec.1st. I hope everyone has a super Thanksgiving and gets to enjoy it with your loved ones.

Local food is big business and more and more restaurants, stores and schools are getting involved. We are in the middle of a movement that is changing the way America eats and it is very exciting. Here’s a great article to show what is happening in our area, as well as all over the United States.

Thank you all for supporting your local farmers and artisans this past 2 years and we look forward to our continued service to you and our local growers and producers. See you on the 1st!
