News from Some of Growers:

Dogwood Walley Greenhouse: All the very early spring perennials are still available, and in addition a bunch of new ones have joined them recently. Unfortunately I cannot make them all featured, which is why I list them here. The very early azaleas are blooming, including my personal favorite, the white streaked with a little pink, and my other personal favorite, the pink with throat markings, both fall rebloomers. Another shrub in bloom right now is flowering almond, which really deserves a spot in your garden. The dwarf coreopsis is just beginning its long bloom cycle, and several mints are growing well. Three woodland phlox are blooming, including both purple and pink stolonifera as well as blue divaricata. These three will really light up your spring shady areas……Very new to the market this week, and very special, are the “Stacked Planters”. I have put some together with hardy herbs and some with hardy succulents, and am impatiently waiting till warmer weather to plant some with tender succulents. These planters have three layers which can be disassembled and rearranged as much as you like. I will be glad to bring one in to place on the market table for you to see if you’d like. Just drop me an email and let me know.

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farm): This week we have forage greens (mostly miner’s lettuce and arugula for now) and our delicious Black Vanilla Tea to get you past the cloudy spring days! Also try some of our herbal healing and regular teas for a delicious (and cheaper) alternative to the OTC options. They are delicious hot or cold, and all quite nutritious. We also have our immune boosting essential oil recipe in both nasal inhalers and sustainable smelling salts……Try a gut-healthy Ginger-Fig or Wolfberry Mint shrub/tonic for great taste combined with nutritious ingredients. Use them also for a salad dressing with our Rosemary-Thyme Hummus….When you need to quarantine from the quarantine . . . Revitalizing Bath Salt

Quarter Spring Farm: We are pleased to offer a full selection of sizes of whole chickens, as well as select remaining cuts of chicken. We are happy to announce several new soap scents available through Stones River Market, as well. We have added Strawberry soap and shampoo, Grandma’s Garden, and Barnyard Berries to our available scents…….The CDC recommends frequent hand washing as one of the most effective ways to slow the spread of the coronavirus. Our goat milk soaps are made to be great for your skin, so you can pamper while you protect.

Wedge Oak Farm: We are excited to offer our locally farm raised meats this week! Ground Meats- All are 80/20%……Grass fed Beef, Pasture Pork, 100% Chicken,..,,,Breakfast Sausages: Pork: Medium, Hot, XSage….,,Poultry Medium available too!,,,,Honky Tonk Cheesesteak Sausage – beef, bacon, jalapeños, white cheddar.,…,,,We are loaded with pork and poultry links too. It is a great time for cooking at home and a roaster chicken or Half Chicken can feed you for several meals.,.,,,Check out stock parts, bones, and broths for your soups, beans and rice! A real stock is a great addition to staying healthy. Beef, Pork, Chicken, Turkey and Duck.,,.,,Beef Round Roasts, Boston Butts and Pork Ribs make a great dinner too. Put them in the Instapot for a faster finish in the oven.

Oakview Farm: We will again have our delicious chicken and duck eggs for sale this week. We are also looking forward to a great Spring growing season. We should have our Spring microgreens and Spinach and Kale next week!

Farrar Farm LLC: Regrettably we will not be on the market this week, we’ve sold out! If all goes as planned, we will have more products available next week.

Sow’s Ear Piggery: we have added more new cuts from the “small batch” order we recently processed. Spring-time temperatures are great for firing up the grill for chops or ribs. With Easter around the corner, think about a small fresh ham roast. These are not cured, but we can provide instructions and the tiny amount of “pink salt” insta-cure needed for a curing brine. These cuts and more (ground pork, cutlets, shoulder steaks) are from young, tender heritage-breed pigs, fed a non-GMO, no-corn, non-so, non-antibiotic diet. USDA inspected.

BB’s Gourmet Pretzels: Take a break, sit back with a bag of our delicious and could be addictive flavors of our pretzels. Also have Gluten Free Pretzels and Gluten Free Peanut butter cookies. (Comment: the Smudges are over the top delicious! by Catherine, Market Manager)

Flying S Farms: Our Squadron of Chickens have been eggcitingly producing eggs for the market this week. Several Breads available; Sour Dough, Artisan style and Friendship Breads, most all these breads make delicious as ‘French Toast’! Brownies and Lemon Bars, Cinnamon Cake Bars, I will be adding Jams as I prepare them today and Salad Onions are available.

Mo’Scrubs by Toya: Treat yourself or love one with our products. From head to toe, relaxing and beneficial. Your body will thank you.

Caney Fork Farms: Unfortunately we will not be able to open on the Market this week. Planning to return to Market starting in April.

Once I saw how much others liked my doggie treats I went into business.

“Welcome March” for many of us Farmers/Growers this is the start of our growing season, preparing soil, starting seeds, getting excited for warmer weather and feeling the dirt! Soon the Market will be having fresh produce and fruits….exciting times ahead. In-the-mean time…Enjoy the Market this week with our Year-Round Growers offering some delicious choice from winter greens, meats, fermented foods and beverages, mushrooms and sprouts, baked goods and more.

News From Our Growers:

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farms): We have more forage greens – get them while they are available! They blend well in salads and sandwiches with rosemary thyme hummus, your choice of our gourmet mustards or shrubs, and a dollop of one of the tasty krauts from Short Mountain…It’s about time to pick up the last batch of elderberry and fire cider for the season.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse: I’m suddenly finding myself into the beginning of the spring season. Who knew it would come on this quickly?…
Surprise! The very early perennials are in bloom at Dogwood Valley Greenhouse, and they could brighten your garden too. This week’s beauties include: Lenten rose, wild ginger, green Jacob’s ladder (Greek valerian), lavender woodland Phlox stolonifera, vinca (periwinkle or creeping myrtle), and candytuft. They are all in limited supply, so order early. The weather should be great for planting this week. But warm enough to plant means too warm for daffodils. This will probably be the last week of blooms, but I should have lots this week as they come on fast in the warmer weather. Get yours right away!

Mushamo Valley: Smoked Mozzarella Buns are a little nuggets of cheesy, bready goodness. Soft, tender yeast dough pillows are stuffed with chunks of smoked-mozzarella cheese, brushed with garlic butter, then dusted with Parmesan. When cheese loves bread very much, it’s a beautiful thing…Added The King Trumpet Mushroom this week they are a part of the Oyster Mushroom family. In fact, it’s the largest member of the family! They have a long shelf life and will happily hang out in a paper bag inside the refrigerator for a week, sometimes longer.

It is some of the BEST milk around!… Also be sure to check out our Tempeh (pronounced TEM-pay)it is a cultured, fermented plant based protein native to Indonesia.

Certainly hope everyone did well through last weeks weather. Would like to remind our customers if by chance there is severe weather please do not feel obligated to pickup your order, let me know and we can make other pickup arrangements. Safety First! We were able to get off ‘The Porch’ before worst of the rainstorm arrived but it was still a little scary with the lightning and rain!

News From Our Growers:

Short Mountain Cultures: We now offer a range of Hatcher Dairy Milk on SRM!! Our offerings include cream top whole milk, chocolate milk, half and half and heavy cream. Support local milk! It is some of the BEST milk around!

The Sugared Spoon: Our Chocolate Raspberry Cookies are available through Valentine’s Day. Assortments are always are great choice also.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse: It’s daffodil time in Tennessee! Well, I hope it is. 70* weather at the first of the week brought the buds on too fast, then the beds where my daffodils are planted all flooded a foot deep! Lastly we had an inch of snow Thursday night and temperatures hovering around freezing all day Friday, which bowed down the tenderest, largest buds. Some of the first flowers may have been damaged, but the majority of the bed will be fine. So I’m going out on a limb and listing a few bouquets available this week. If those are sold when you place your order, go ahead and order one anyway, but know that I will be filling orders on a first come, first served basis. The daffodils will come on fast if we have warmish weather. They should be available for at least two more weeks after this one, so if you miss out on the early blooms, please try again next week. Thanks for your continued support and encouragement!

Mushamo Valley: This week Lion’s Mane is available, considered the lobster or crab of the mushroom world with a taste described as rich, buttery, sweet, and meaty…. NEW: Japanese curry buns are extremely flavorful and very mild! and Chinese peanut cookie traditionally served at the lunar new year, each cookie is approximately 1.5” and made of freshly roasted and ground peanuts.

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farms): Our arugula and mustard greens had a bit of snow on them the last few days, but they should be thawed out by market time…Our red pepper and rosemary thyme hummus are a great addition to salad, casseroles, sandwiches, or crackers…Try a gut-healthy shrub for great taste combined with nutritious ingredients.

Nom Noms Dog Treats: Our Dog Treats are nutritiously delicious doggie treats that help get dogs spayed/neutered. Our treats are gluten/wheat free, vegan, and full of good protein.

Flying S Farms: NEW this week by request Vanilla Cinnamon Raisin Friendship Bread. Fresh Farm Eggs, Salad Onions, Garlic Bulbs, Sour Dough and Artisan Style Bread, along with Jams and Jelly this week.

Our Shrubs (drinking vinegars/tonics made with honey) can be added to bubbly or regular water or warmed to make your favorite beverage oh-so-good.

The Sugared Spoon: Last week for Confetti cookies! Look for a new creation for February. Can’t decide what to try? Pick the assortment and message me what you’d like in it!

Mushamo Valley: This week, available is Jake Hates Sprouts are a tasty blend of alfalfa, red clover, broccoli, kale, and burgundy amaranth sprouts. Not merely for invigorating plain ole salads, this blend is well-suited to burgers and sandwiches, sprinkled on tacos or omelets, gently stirred into scramble eggs, or used as a delicious and eye catching soup topper.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse: One of my favorite houseplants is Aloe Vera, a kitchen staple to treat burns, skin infections, wounds. Its natural gel has a soothing effect and helps to relieve pain by inhibiting formation of tissue-injuring compounds that gather at the site of a skin injury….Beyond topical use, Aloe Vera juice can be added to vegetarian recipes to give a powerful nutritional punch. This somewhat bitter juice can be disguised in smoothies, juicing recipes and salad dressings. Aloe contains vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other trace elements that work together to heal and repair the body and boost the immune system.
Whatever the choice is for use, Aloe Vera should be a part of everyone’s kitchen arsenal.
