Mid June is NOT too late for planting 😁🪴 In our region, it's actually a great time to get transplant starters into the ground, pots, & planters.

Lucky for us, vendors at the Allegany Farmers Markets Frostburg Market have a variety of great options for you AND they are incredibly helpful answering any questions, providing tips for success, etc.!

Help stop the POO-LUTION. An estimated 1.3 million dogs live, play and poo in Maryland. The simple act of picking up after your dog can assist in removing harmful nutrients, bacteria, worms and parasites that can be deposited thus keeping our citizens healthy. Dog waste acts as a biohazard rather than as a fertilizer. It also creates a potentially deadly health hazard for other canines due to the Parvovirus being highly contagious and spread easily thru f***s. It's also the law. Be a responsible dog parent and Doo the Right Thing!

Replace *skunk* with *squirrel*… if you know, you know! 😜🐿️

(and in case you don’t… a taxidermized squirrel donated to our recent Buy Nothing, Give Freely event had people going nuts (ha)!)

Update about said squirrel: We could not have wished for a better home. The dearly departed rodent is very loved by a little girl and even gets to go on adventures like car rides, to the playground, and nice walks. For real. 💚
