Market News

Good morning everyone!

This week is chock-full of delicious offerings!
Apologies for opening the market a few minutes late. We had an overdue goat to give birth last night! Exciting times :D

Rod at Double Star Bar Farms will have Purple Mustard Greens that have a horseradish taste on the finish for those who like horseradish, you will love these!! These are sold in 2 ounce packages! Sounds delicious for salads, sautees and even in a pesto!
He has also added a mixed bag of German Giant, Cherriette, Chery Belle, or Purple Plum radishes! These will come with the greens which can also add wonderful flavor and nutrition to salads. The greens can also be added to soups, pestos, roasted along with the radishes for a different treat! Try something new this week and share with us!

Ridiculous Chocolate is BACK from vacation this week and back on the market! Welcome home!

Chef Jenny from Seeds of Success will be at the market with samples of all her delicious seasonings and the new Sunbutter Bites!

“These bites combine sunbutter with oats, honey, cocoa, and a hint of sea salt to create a nutritious bite that provides energy, protein, fiber, vitamin E, zinc, and iron. They are perfect for sharing, breakfast on-the-go, or an afternoon snack. Since the SOS is based around the sunflower seed, sunbutter (sunflower seed butter) seemed like an appropriate choice for this bar. *Vegan *No Sugar *No Flour *No Nuts "

White City Produce & Greenhouse has added Rainbow Chard, Arugula, Siberian Kale and Butter Crunch lettuce PLANT STARTS for your own garden.

Don’t forget the Easter Herb Basket from Dogwood Valley, skincare from Botanical Harmony Farm, the incredible food itself and Gift Certificates make a wonderful Easter or welcome Spring gift!

Do you follow the market on Facebook? Make sure to follow and like posts so they show up in your feed because we are planning a welcome Spring GIVEAWAY!!

We love this market and want it to continue to grow for the farmers and the customers. If you would like some flyers, for events etc, let us know and we will get those to you!

Again, we thank you for the support of this market and the growers/makers who rely on you for their livelihood. What an incredible community this market truly is!
