Grower’s News:


Welcome Our New Grower to the Market:

Sundae’s Best Dog Treatery: We make homemade dog treats with natural ingredients and NO added preservatives.
When Sundae was adopted through P.A.W.S. in 2019, she was a scared and lonely pup who had only known fending for herself in the streets of Murfreesboro, TN. We loved on her and nurtured her in every way to make her the healthy, happy, energetic dog she is today! However, she developed some tummy issues, and a dietary change was in order, including the treats she was given every day. We decided to bake her treats ourselves so we could be sure of what she was getting, and she LOVED them! After sharing them with some friends (whose pups also loved them), we decided to start this treatery to bring them to more dogs (and their families!).

LOOKS WHO IS BACK….Pinky’s Micros!
We grow all different kinds of microgreens. Ones that everyone always can find at stores and some that people neverever seen before besides in high end restaurants. I want to bring people fresh microgreens so they can enjoy the health benefits plus also feel like a chef at home. We have our Basic Salad Mix, Broccoli, Pea, Radish and Sunflower

Bean Man:
Thank you all for your understanding during our absence. We are back at the market with our full selection of Fresh, Gluten Free Products. We’ve upgraded our Cassava and Coconut Bread Mixes to include instructions on how to make Gluten Free hamburger buns and biscuits so you have options with these versatile mixes. Check out the Dry Beans and Milled Products section of the market to see our offerings.

Sow’s Ear Piggery:
we are back on the market this week with ‘NEW’ Non-GMO pork products, including pork tenderloin, cutlets, and chops, as well as roasts, ground pork, and mild pork sausage (no MSG).

Valentine Farm:
This season we are offering more of the same delicious vinegar brine pickles and some new products as well. This season we are adding spicy pickled sausages, pickled fresh green peas, spicy giardiniera, Thai pickled eggs and garlic herb eggs. We also are trying out a new product, Botanical Simple Syrups (bee balm, lemon and anise hyssop) and locally harvested Sumac Salts are back on the menu. Thank you so much for your constant support over the years. We appreciate you, our customers. Daphne

Sweet Girl Honey Farm:
We are a family farm in Woodbury, TN using regenerative agricultural practices to produce raw-unfiltered honey, infused honey, honey sweetened jams/jellies, herbal teas/spice blends and natural beeswax/tallow skin care and soap. We also provide fresh eggs (chicken, quail), meat rabbits (availible in August) and seasonal fresh produce (vegetables, herbs, fruit, live plants).

Linwood Lamb:
Chorizo Lamb Brats and Fetta Cheese and Spinach Lamb Sliders. We have restocked all cuts including the popular Thick Cut Lamb Chops and the Big Juicy Lamb Leg Steaks. If you are grilling this summer, make sure Linwood Lamb is on the menu!

Thweet Things:
New item this week will take yourself into a homespun future with some wisdom from the past. The cottagecore/ farmcore gathering apron is for much more than just the garden. Use it for: Collecting eggs, harvesting vegetables, hanging laundry/ clothespins, planting the garden, fruit picking, childcare, homeschooling, and family walks, or carrying garden tools and seed packets. The wide waistband prevents sagging when full of fragile eggs or fruit from the orchard and the deep pocket will keep everything safe from falling out. The pocket has a drawstring that can be tied to a loop at the waistband for keeping eggs and other goods safe. Added last week handmade Japanese style knot bags in three sizes. They have multiple uses including project bags for embroidery or knitting, book bags, market bags, garden picking bags…anything you need to tote.

Rus-T-Farm:
We have a good selection of our Angus Beef and Pork products this week.

RC Farms:
Along with a great assortment of produce and BEEF we now have some popular fruit available and more to come. Find Cantaloupes, Peaches & Cream Corn and Peaches this week. We’ve restocked our Beef selections.

Terry’s Treasures:
I have started making beautiful hand painted vases that will let you showcase your own beautiful flowers. Several different color designs or you can request your own color.

Flying S Farms:
This week we have our Fresh Farm Chicken Eggs, Melons this week: Honeydew, Watermelon and Cantaloupes, Zucchini and Yellow Straight neck Squash, Scallop Squash, Cucumbers, Onions and Potatoes, Bi-color Corn Peaches and Cream, will not have baked items this week due to conflicting doctor appointments.
