Lonely Goose Foods

Homegrown and Homemade foods. The Backstory

When I was young my father managed the local farmer's market. It would also allow us to make a little extra money.

I would go along with him so that we could spend some quality time together. While reminiscing about these fond memories with my wife, Melissa, we decided that running a booth of our own would be a great way to have fun with our children, Samantha, Hannah, Gabriel, Emma and Brayden. As you might imagine, when raising a small hoard of five children, the family budget can always use a little padding

Okay folks, half of the Lonely Goose Flock is Migrating North under new name of SeMe Family Foods. Lonely Goose will continue to operate here in Manhattan while SeMe Family Foods will be in operation in the Pacific Northwest. SeMe Family Foods will be at the Manhattan Farmers Market today and for the next few weekends before the big migration. Please come out and see what they have to offer today. The Goose is out playing so SeMe is hanging out in the booth space at the Market.

Dear Friends, Family, and Loyal Customers of the Lonely Goose.

It's been a long and tough winter for us and many things have changed behind the scenes that we are having to bounce back from. Needless to say it hasn't been easy and we still have a lot to do and make up for.

That being said, tomorrow is opening day of the Downtown Farmers Market of Manhattan and we will be there even if our booth is smaller than normal. Please come visit us and say hello to all the great vendors that make this market possible.

Oh and by the way...

First person to show up and whisper to me " Do you want to see something strange and mystical?" gets the free jelly.

Hope to see you tomorrow,
The Lonely Goose

Our mistake is your gain. We accidentally printed some Spicy Tomato labels with the wrong name but the ingredients are right. So instead of wasting them we decided to make them a bonus for you. Find a jar with a goofed up tag and take an automatic .25 cents off on us.

So we went and looked at the new place last night and the potential for what we will be able to do there is amazing. But we would never be able to do it without all our family and extended family here on Facebook. You guys really are awesome and this would never have been possible without you.

08/03/2014

Back on July 13th we only had 65 likes of our page, in not even a month we have reached 237! We couldn't have done it without our great friends and customers!

You are all the best!
