Welcome to September!

September has always been a facinating month for me.  Though it is still pretty warm outside, it feels immediately like fall.  So here is to a new month, and a new season!

Winnie Mae's at the Arts Center

Nothing is written in stone, but things are definitely taking shape with Winnie Mae's beginning operations out of the Arts Center.  They have some big plans in their future and we love being even a small part of that.  Having that as a "home" for Winnie Mae's gives us a place to serve some delicious and locally owned Leopard Forest Coffee, and a number of light, simple accompanying snacks and light lunches.  It will also give people a chance to pick up some of their CSA orders at more convenient times and even take a stroll around and look at some great art.

Bulk Sales
Winnie Mae's has a lot of things planned for this month.  This month will see the beginning of bulk sales in greater volume.  We like that we can get you anything within reason at wholesale prices, so let us know what you need!  There is definitely strength in numbers.

Tuesday Events

We have events planned for every Tuesday this month at the Arts Center in Clemson.  We will be putting on demos on how to cut up a chicken to make it last longer for your family, beginning permaculture at home and what to do for next year now that the weather is getting cooler, making baby food form all of the things that you get from your CSA, and a wine tasting at the end of this month to get ready for our In Vino Veritas wine event in October.

Greenfest
Greenfest is taking shape.  The progress we have made is the result of many hands working together to get the word out, to create, and to make a difference.  We are excited to create this event so that we can lobby to have it be our permanent space.  The thought is that it is perfect because of its proximity to the Police Station, City Hall, while not being directly on the "ave".  Also, its condition shows a lot of promise and possibilities.

So, stay tuned, keep in touch, and join up if you have not already.  Basic membership is just $45 and full membership is $65.  Let us know what Winnie Mae's can do for you!
