Market News


Did everyone remember to turn back their clocks last night with the end of daylight savings? The Market is back open this morning with a good supply of locally grown and made products.

I have an important note about the Market. As we have grown so has the expenses for the Market. Beginning today, November 1, the market surcharge will increase by 3%. I am always working to improve the Market for customers and farmers and this increase should help with that.

Notes and products about the Market this week:

Erdmann Farm will be taking a two week break but will return with plenty of kale and arugula as well as some new items – broccoli and cabbage.

Farrar Farms contintues to add their listing. This week it is beef short ribs.

Flying S Farm brings a greens mixture to the Market – Ka Co Tu Mus – which is mixture of kale, collards, turnip and mustard greens.

Rainbow Hill Farm has eight varieties of apples available including Arkansas Black, Fuji and Pink Lady. They also have bulk size apples for making applesauce if you want to preserve them for winter.

Rocky Glade Farm has an abundance of sweet potatoes so has list bushel size quantities. This is also the last week for galangal and their ginger is almost gone.

Thanksgiving is fast approaching. There is still time to reserve a fresh turkey from West Wind Farms.

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!
