Here’s a bright Peacock Kale for the solstice! Today marks the official beginning of winter, but we’ve already had our first snow on Tuesday, and the river made a brief foray into the parking lot yesterday. There are plenty of gray, rainy days ahead, but we know we’re beginning the journey back toward more sunlight.
We’ll be at the Lincoln County Fairgrounds Farmers Market tomorrow with lots of late-season veggies! Then we’ll take a holiday break on December 29. The Portland Winter Market begins January 5 at Shemanski Park; the Hillsdale Market resumes January 6; and the Corvallis Indoor Winter Market begins January 12 at the fairgrounds.
We sure appreciate you all, and we look forward to seeing you again in the new year!

We went to the Valentines dinner Saturday, Feb 16th. The food was good but on the way out, one of the servers stopped us and let us know she didn’t think we did had tipped enough. Personally, I don’t tip 15% or 20% on the price of a wine bottle since wine can be $10 a bottle or $200 a bottle (and the effort is the same). Furthermore, the servers did not take orders like a regular restaurant, but rather simply carried out each course. Yes, they did a good job but not the same as a full-service restaurant. Regardless – what was a fun evening was ruined when she accused us of not tipping enough and then ARGUING with us over it. We won’t be back.
