Market News

Welcome to the last week in August and some new products have been added today. Double Star Bar Farms has added two kinds of artisan bread. Erdmann Farm brings back gladiolas but in orange, red and white. Kelly Creek Farm introduces hydroponic Better Boy tomatoes. Ozark Gold and Rhode Island Greening apples return from Rainbow Hill Farm. White City Produce and Greenhouse has an abundance of concord grapes.

You will also find an abundance of peppers and tomatoes from most of our produce farmers. Now is the time to stock up for canning and freezing to have locally grown produce this winter.

Wild Flours is back this week as well with their breads, flours and cinnamon rolls.

A note from Chef Jenny about her new product – Pumpkin Spice:

Pumpkin Spice is a mixture of toasted seeds and pecans combined with honey, vanilla, and fall spices. This crunchy snack is sure to satisfy all your taste buds. For a special treat, try it with: Sweet Potatoes, Baked Apples, Acorn Squash, Pumpkin Lattes, or Vanilla Yogurt.

There are plenty of other products available this week. Browse the categories to see what your will find.

Thanks so much for your support of Stones River Market, all of our growers, local food, and our rights to eat it. We’ll see you on Wednesday at Southern Stained Glass at 310 West Main Street from 5:00 to 6: 30 pm!
