Growers News: Few of our Growers are alternating their weeks, give them time to restock and take care of ‘Farm’ things.
Shroomegy Gourmet Mushrooms – NEW IEMS THIS WEEK – King Oyster is now in stock. These are meaty mushrooms filled with rich umami flavor. Perfect as an alternative to scallops or just sauteed by themselves. Returning this week are Italian Oyster, Lion’s Mane, and Bear’s Head. We also have a selection of powdered mushrooms that can be added to eggs, soups, and casseroles. Next week Rocky Top Blue Oyster returns. Check out our website for recipes!
Thweatt Things: Just in time for Valentine’s Day! Reading pillows with a pocket in front for a favorite book, Kindle or iPad. There’s even room for some Valentine candy too! Sorry, books are not included. Those stay in my library!
Oakview Farm: will have some of our beautiful Artisan Sourdough Bread this week, along with fresh, sweet white turnips, and our Salad Greens Mix! Our Salad Greens Mix is a delicious blend of arugula, tender mustard/turnip greens, and spinach for a healthy and tasty salad!!
RC Farm: Enjoy our large selection of produce grown in our greenhouse and/or hydroponically.
Rus-T-Acres: Our Chickens have finally started laying again! This winter has been ruff on our feather ‘friends’. Be sure to checkout our several delicious selections of Beef and Pork.
Pinky’s Micros: Microgreens this week is our Basic Salad Mix that packs flavor with colorful combination of five different organic microgreens; Broccoli Microgreens, Pea Shoots, Radish Microgreens and Sunflower Microgreens. Use in your salads or by themselves also top any sandwich, use instead of lettuce.

Several other delicious prepared meal items in ‘Noodles, Pasta and Italian Sauces’ available this week: Beef and Cheese Lasagna Family Portion and Single Portion, Cajun Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and Chicken Marsala and in ‘Seasonal Side Dishes’ Brussel Sprouts with Carmelized Onions and Bacon, Mashed Potatoes with sour cream and green onions. Watch for some new items coming soon!
Pennie’s Delights: we have several delicious baked items that would make wonderful holiday gifts or treats from Cakes, Pies, Cookies, Puddings, Cobblers, Sweet Breads, Brownies, several different Cinnamon Rolls and Cupcakes. On the not so sweet side we have our delicious Mexican Cornbread that would be delicious with most meals.
Flying S Farms: Chicken Eggs, they are picking up their production! Pumpkin Butter, Apple Butter and Fig Jam from local Turkey Fig Trees, CHRISTMAS JAM (Strawberries and Cranberries) is back, Apple Jamely (almost a jelly but thick like a jam) HOT Jams – Seriously Hot Strawberry and Habanero Peach are a hit. Warm some up and put over cream cheese and serve with crackers – yummy.
Side Note: Catherine is having discomfort with a tooth and we’ve had to close our Baked Items off. She will be seeing Dr. tomorrow.
