Dog Rescue Day  
Saturday
May 7, 2016
9am to 1pm
Hello Market Shoppers!
Happy May!
Well, it feels more like soggy April, but tomorrow morning we should be dry with only a chance of a passing shower. It's Mother's Day weekend and we will have lots of goodies to make a delicious meal or give a yummy gift.

We have a very special demo on our stage at 9am tomorrow.  St. Peter's Bakery is going to show us how they make their fantastic bread!  If you pre-register for the demo, you will be entered in a raffle to win a loaf of their bread once a week for the month of May!

This week we welcome a new artisan food producer, Natalie's Craft Kombucha!  Be sure to stop by to meet her.  Sarah, from Peach Bottom Farm returns this week with her farm grown asparagus and rhubarb and baked goods.  Several of our vendors are having sales and special this week.  Be sure to read the listings below so you don't miss them!

Joe Willson will perform on stage from 10 to 1, be sure to grab a seat and listen to his incredible fingerstyle guitar music.

It's still early in the growing season, so you won't find heat loving vegetables and fruits YET... but they will come later in the season! In the meantime, enjoy those springs greens while you can.

See you at the Market!

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

To Love a Canine

To Love a Canine Rescue is a non-profit, all-breed, foster-based dog rescue operating in suburban Philadelphia. 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.


DogsHome
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.
