Everyone please come show their support for Monami Farms on June 17th at the June Green Third Thursday in Homewood, AL.  The event will be hosted by the Catalyst for Birmingham Members and will be celebrating the community gardeners of Birmingham. There will be food, music, and drinks so bring a friend and come gather some information regarding Monami Farms and the other local farmers in your area. Monami Farms will be serving a homemade pesto and a roasted eggplant dip,  make sure you grab a bite. As always, thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you at the event. 

V. Richards, Here We Come!!!

Ok everyone, it is time to take another trip to V. Richard's market in the next couple of days to buy an ounce or two of Monami Farms' fresh Genovese Basil. We have our own special packages in our own special spot just to the right of all the other fresh herbs in the produce section. We were fortunate enough to be awarded this exclusive retail space because our basil is considered the most beautiful and delicious by Doug, the produce manager. I just picked over two pounds at our Falkville farm this morning and will be delivering some of it to our neighborhood market friends in the morning. So stop by and tell them you came to patronize their store because they carry Monami Farms products.

As always I want to thank Rick, Lyn, Rickie, and Doug for their support of our business and many other local businesses. They have a wonderful place that I often frequent for a number of quality products.

You can also find an opportunity to enjoy some of our products at the GTT event in Homewood on Thursday, June 18. Contact John through Facebook or monamifarms@gmail.com for details as he will be overseeing the event on behalf of both of us. I will not be able to be in attendance, but I look forward to hearing about everyone who came out in support of us.
