Market News

The Winter Market officially begins this Saturday, January 7 with the earlier opening time of 9:00 AM. You’ve probably already become accustomed to seeing the Winter Market vendors as they began coming in the cooler weather and some are at the market for the Summer and Winter seasons.


Tip of the Month

The New Year seems to be a popular time to vow to eat better, which of course AFM patrons do every week. With “Here’s to Your Family’s Health” from Virginia Cooperative Extension you can check the basics of you health and diet practices:

Or get a second opinion on “The Low-Carbohydrate Craze: Is it a Healthy Way to Lose Weight”
http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/nutrition/348-351/348-351.html

Dare I mention “As We Age: Nutrition for Senior Adults” offers tips about fiber, calcium, and antioxidants.
