<strong>Palm</strong> Spr<strong>in</strong>gs Indoor Certified Farmers’ Market Opens<br />
Saturday, <strong>June</strong> 11<br />
The <strong>Palm</strong> Spr<strong>in</strong>gs Certified Farmers’ Market reopens <strong>in</strong>doors <strong>in</strong> the air conditioned<br />
<strong>Palm</strong> Spr<strong>in</strong>gs Pavilion (401 S Pavilion Way) this Saturday, <strong>June</strong> 11th. In order to beat<br />
the heat and accommodate our early-ris<strong>in</strong>g customers, the Market’s new hours of<br />
operation will be 8:00am - 1:00pm.<br />
“You asked, we listened!” said Lauren Wolfer, Program Director of the <strong>Palm</strong> Spr<strong>in</strong>gs<br />
Cultural Center. She cont<strong>in</strong>ued, “we are thrilled to have the Certified Farmers’<br />
Market available year-round, thanks to the generosity of our community and the<br />
City of <strong>Palm</strong> Spr<strong>in</strong>gs.”<br />
The Indoor <strong>Palm</strong> Spr<strong>in</strong>gs Certified Farmers Market <strong>in</strong> the Pavillion will cont<strong>in</strong>ue<br />
accept<strong>in</strong>g CalFresh/SNAP benefits (which means customers can use their EBT card<br />
at the market), and offer<strong>in</strong>g Market Match, California’s largest nutrition <strong>in</strong>centive<br />
program. Market Match provides a dollar-for-dollar match of shoppers’ CalFresh<br />
benefits at participat<strong>in</strong>g farmers’ markets. For example, if a customer spends $15<br />
<strong>in</strong> CalFresh benefits, participat<strong>in</strong>g farmers’ markets provide a match<strong>in</strong>g $15 credit<br />
to double the customer’s purchas<strong>in</strong>g power for fresh fruits and vegetables. The<br />
$15/$15 match was slated to drop down to $10/$10 earlier <strong>in</strong> the year, but was<br />
extended thanks to a generous donation from Chef Chad Gardner of the Gardner<br />
Hospitality Group.<br />
Additionally, the CV WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) Office will be hand<strong>in</strong>g<br />
out Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) voucher packs at the Indoor Market<br />
dur<strong>in</strong>g select dates this summer. Each voucher pack is good for $28 <strong>in</strong> fresh fruits<br />
and vegetables, and is matched with an extra $10 extra <strong>in</strong> produce tokens. That<br />
means each WIC family can receive a total of $38 to spend on fresh, small farmdirect<br />
produce. Out of the ten WIC FMNP distribution sites <strong>in</strong> Riverside County, ours<br />
is the only one that matches with an additional $10. WIC recipients should contact<br />
the CV WIC office for more <strong>in</strong>formation.<br />

Two Men of Taunton Project<br />
Part 5<br />
A River carved by<br />
Two Men of Taunton is about revolution<br />
as it happened.<br />
To say the residents of Taunton are<br />
patriotic would be an understatement.<br />
From orig<strong>in</strong>al patriotism to wisened<br />
sturdy Yankee fellas that thrive <strong>in</strong> the<br />
silver city. Gay and straight.<br />
There are many reasons to leave<br />
Taunton, but it will never leave you.<br />
LIKE SNOW!<br />
Before the Pilgrims, visitors from the<br />
east would make their way across<br />
the sea from far away lands. Before<br />
one Easterner stepped foot here,<br />
approximately 12,000 years ago,<br />
follow<strong>in</strong>g the revegetation of the area<br />
once the glaciers receded, nomadic<br />
tribes of hunter/gatherers migrated<br />
<strong>in</strong>to New England. These native tribes<br />
camped and hunted a bountiful land all<br />
along a w<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g River. One that would<br />
become “tidal” as it emptied itself <strong>in</strong>to<br />
the Atlantic ocean. Now called the<br />
taunton riverThe Taunton River it even<br />
provided currency for the native tribes.<br />
Periw<strong>in</strong>kle and quahog shell furnished<br />
the material for the valuable white<br />
beads of wampum and the blue spot on<br />
quahog shells provided the blue bead.<br />
The Native Americans welcomed<br />
the arriv<strong>in</strong>g immigrants and helped<br />
them survive. They were treated by<br />
their character, not by the way they<br />
looked. However, as always happens<br />
without regulation, people will snap like<br />
banshees. 20 Never miss Th<strong>in</strong>k a DDG a fat, we are ag<strong>in</strong>g always FREE starv<strong>in</strong>g only at ddg.gay<br />
Pilgrim aga<strong>in</strong>st a half-naked bulg<strong>in</strong>g<br />
man with abs of steel. As a performer at<br />
the Plymouth Plantation museum, I met<br />
more than my share of both.<br />
Visitors also left their call<strong>in</strong>g cards<br />
on a Rock <strong>in</strong> the middle of the river.<br />
Mentioned <strong>in</strong> 1680 and <strong>in</strong> 1690, Rev.<br />
Cotton Mather, described the rock then<br />
as “no man alive knows How or When it<br />
was made ...”<br />
Today we only know that no one knows<br />
who made the <strong>in</strong>scriptions on the<br />
petroglyph on a rock <strong>in</strong> this ancient<br />
river. We only know they are old and<br />
authentic. I often got stuck on a sand<br />
bar and had to wade back or wait 6<br />
hours, depend<strong>in</strong>g on the tide or who<br />
was with me.<br />
Pirates bury<strong>in</strong>g treasure was very rare<br />
but hid<strong>in</strong>g it was not. So I belived it was<br />
a lot of people and a handsome, sex<br />
filled swagger<strong>in</strong>g Pirate hid<strong>in</strong>g his booty<br />
<strong>in</strong> pla<strong>in</strong> sight. Perhaps Dixie Bull, the first<br />
pirate known to prey on shipp<strong>in</strong>g off the<br />
New England coast. To me, the images<br />
look photoshopped, and a new X marks<br />
the new location of the booty.<br />
