April 18th Newsletter View this email in your browser The Pastures of Rose Creek Happy Friday Everyone! Here's the latest from the farm...   Upcoming Farm Tours     Are you curious about where your food comes from? Well… we think you should be. The Pastures of Rose Creek will be hosting farm tours on Sunday's towards the end of spring.  So come out and see our Egg Mobile, all our grass-fed cows in rotational grazing and our flourishing garden. Who knows? If you're lucky, you may meet one of the farm celebrities like Al and Ug, the bulls, or Marshall and Sterling, the roosters.     Also, we will be offering, "pick your own produce" days. Honestly, what could be cooler than sitting around the dinner table, telling your friends and family that you picked the very veggies they are eating! Stay tuned for more information on that in the weeks to come… Farmer's Markets Are you having family over in the coming week for Easter? We suggest you stock up on produce, eggs and beef for those big family meals! Athens Farmer's Market - We will be at Bishop Park from 8am to 12pm.
