Market News


The Market is back open this morning with frost on the pumpkin.

Some new and items of interest for the Market this week:

Bloomin’ Shrooms has plenty of mushrooms available including a 5 pound quantity for large party or someone interested in drying for later.

Double Star Bar Farms returns to the Market with their artisan bread, stevia, blueberry syrup and natural bug repellent, plus they have added Oma’s Carrot Cake to the list.

JENuine Health has put her Dill-icious Seasoning on sale to complement this week’s recipe (shown below).

Since the weather is getting colder, get a head start on your fireplace fires with kindling from JourneyWorks Community Garden.

Apples from Rainbow Hill Farm include: Granny Smith, Mutsu, Red and Yellow Delicious.

Rocky Glade Farm introduces fresh tumeric which may be cut into coins, matchsticks, or cubes; grated with a microplane or cheese grater; and juiced or thrown into smoothies.

Thanksgiving is a month away. Now is the time to reserve your fresh turkey from West Wind Farms.

A note from Botanical Harmony:

We have updated our body butters, baby bottom cream, and breathe to the 2 oz glass jars and all are fresh and in stock.

Recipes

Please, share your recipes with us on the Recipes tab. We’d all love to know how you use your Stones River Market products, so we can try it too!

The recipe this week comes from Chef Jenny with JENuine Health to complement the turnips available on the Market.

Turnip Tip:
Turnips can be substituted for potatoes in any of your favorite recipes. Use them in soups, stews, salads, casseroles or mashed. They provide one third the amount of calories as an equal amount of potatoes. They also contain fiber, folic acid, and vitamin C. The leafy greens on the turnips are also edible. Scallop Turnips is one of my favorite ways to prepare them. Thinly slice (or dice) turnips and onions. Sauté in olive oil until lightly browned. Add salt, pepper, and Seeds of Success Dill-icious Seasoning (to taste). Combine all the ingredients in a casserole dish with cheddar cheese. Bake at 375 degrees until the turnips are tender and the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with additional Dill-icious Seasoning before serving. Serve with the greens.

I thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible!
