Greetings!
It's summer, and we're all busy planning vacations and barbecues, so I'm going to keep this one short and sweet. I've included a calendar of fun events that are going on throughout the summer.
I want to give a special shout-out to the Montavilla Farmers Market, which opened last weekend and missed inclusion in the farmers market calendar in our last e-newsletter. I was there for opening day and enjoyed seeing old friends from the neighborhood, sharing a cinnamon roll with my daughter and watching a chef demonstration by Country Cat's Adam Sappington.
Hope you get a chance to enjoy the simple pleasures of the season, and I hope this calendar helps. Have a fabulous summer!
regards,
