Our 2 blueberry farmers have finished for the season although Boatright Farms still will have blueberries a little while longer. Also, this Saturday on July 4th, the 2009 American Legion Auxiliary Cookbook, Unit 54 will be available at the Market. This is a one of a kind cookbook that has not been done before and will probably not be done again for many years. The recipes come from all members of the American Legion, sons of the American Legion, American Legion Auxiliary and the American Legion Riders. The book has been dedicated to the "Old Log Cabin" and the City of Fernandina Beach for their generosity and kindness in allowing the Legion the opportunity to make the Cabin their home for so many years. Funds from the cookbook sales will beocme part of the Legion's general fund which is used to send care packages to our troops, supplies to the VA hospital, Relay for Life cancer, adopt a family at Christmas time, Micah's Place and many other organizations within the community. Returning: 7/11 - Sweet Grass Dairy
