Market News

The Market is back open and here is the latest news. Casa Segovia-Paz, Carol’s Vibration Cooking, and Erdmann Farm are taking a vacation this week. They will return next week with a full inventory of items.

Brussels Sprouts from Rocky Glade Farm return this week. There is nothing like fresh Brussels sprouts added to your dinner table.

We only have a few weeks left of apples from Rainbow Hill Farm. Making their appearance today are Pink Lady. Pink Lady apples have a crunchy texture and a tart taste with a sweet finish.

The holidays are fast approaching. I will publish this schedule again but make your plans accordingly.

  • Those who ordered Wedge Oak Farm turkeys will pick them up on Wednesday, November 19.
  • Those who ordered West Wind Farms turkeys will pick them up on Wednesday, November 26
  • No deliveries to Nashville customers on Thursday, November 27.
  • In the past, we have closed Christmas week but this year will be a little different. Pick up for that week only will be moved to Tuesday, December 23 at the regularly scheduled time.

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