Hey hey hey,

                              Salamander alumna Tiffany will be at the Milledgeville Market on Hancock Street tomorrow (Tuesday) at 4. In addition to her own savory wares, she'll have the following delectable Salamander Springs specialties:

Pickled Green Tomatoes - $4 a jar. Our own delicious recipe, with a bit of garlic.

Apple and Green Tomato Chutney - $4 and $6 a jar. Simply irresistible.

Assorted breads from our wood-fired cob oven.



Buy local!

Creekside Cabin Construction

I'm really on a roll with the alliterations today (see the Glorious Garden Greenery post for more alliterative delights). Here are a few shots of Nate Lloyd Wright and Company building the creekside retreat (which Michael has tentatively named "The Palace Flophouse and Grill" for all you Steinbeck afficionados). The PFG was built almost completely with donated materials!

We use only the highest technology to design our schematics.

You have to hold your mouth just right ...

Please, stop the violence.

Un Jeung, Aliza, and Nate - some days you step in the cob; some days you jump in it.

Glorious Garden Greenery

Here are some pics of the garden.

Where to start?

This looks delicious!

Mulchmaster Matt, the Milledgeville Mulch Maestro (how's that for an alliteration?)

Jelly Elephant's Saturday Night Music Jam

It's guaranteed to be the most happening soirée in Gordon, GA. Check it out:

How many people can fit on Janet's short bus? Quite a few - some more adept at posing than others.

From construction to percussion, he's your guy.

Shindig status? In full swing.

Georgia Organics Conference

By hook and by crook I've finagled a scholarship to attend Plow Forward - the 15th Annual Georgia Organics Conference, taking place February 24 and 25 in Columbus. If you're unfamiliar with it, the conference is a wonderful, inspiring experience. Click on over to their website here; I strongly recommend that you attend if at all possible.
