Subject: Home Improvements Business Intro

I’ve got a belated business intro, but for someone else’s business…

For anyone looking for a home Improvement/Handyman person, I highly recommend Jeff Gannon.

Jeff has done several small jobs for me, which he is happy to do.   But he also does large jobs as well.  Anything from a leaky faucet to a home addition or renovation, Jeff is happy to do for you, and do it with a smile.  He also does green building and  mold diagnosis and remediation.  He fit my little job in with the big job he was working on when I called him, so I didn’t have to wait weeks for him to get to me.  Jeff is honest, high integrity and very friendly.  He is great at what he does, and his rates are great too.

Chasing down Angels after Midnight

I’m up listening to the rain come down whilst chasing down some of the Christmas Angels that responded to my post . Overlook me if I ramble on or misspell because I’m physically and mentally a bit drained tonight but I needed to get this post on .  Below is a list of items the children or their moms need . If you have any of the items or want to send a gift card to them directly or through one of  Angels that’s fine too .

Subject: Andy Zeman of Benjamin Wines

Hi, I saw your request on chatlist for the name of the wine merchant at the Pittsboro Farmer’s Market this past season.  Andy Zeman of Benjamin Wines (Saxapahaw area) would be happy to hear from you, I’m sure.  benjaminwines@cs.com

Also Debbie Roos of our ag dept put some of the Pittsboro farmers from the market on her “growingsmallfarms” website–just google that phrase, and then click on farmers’ markets. Under Pittsboro some of us come up.  More contact info there, I think.
