Quarter Spring Farm: We really appreciates all the support from everyone at the Stones River Market. We can’t do what we love without your patronage. So thanks. We are fully stocked with all sizes of whole chickens and cuts this week. Check out our soaps and dog treats, too.

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farm): Check out our herbal honeys, mustards, and garlic, as well as ginger fig and watermelon shrubs – refreshing drinks to beat the heat! Stock up this week we be taking a break next week.

The July heat is hard on plants. Be sure to water them enough to maintain their structure and not become weak and limp. Remember: more sun, more water. Also just about every plant prefers a gentle soaking to a dumped bucket. Keep them happy and they will reward you with lots of blooms and/or fruit.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse: We have some late season bloomers beginning to show their stuff. While the coneflowers and pincushions continue to bloom all summer, they are joined by the beautiful late double orange daylilies. The gorgeous blue plumbago, or leadwort, are also just beginning to bloom now.

The ferns have been restocked, and we have a good supply of 11 varieties. Varying in height, foliage color, and texture, they will add a lot of interest to the shady areas of the garden.

We have also restocked a good selection of Fresh-Cut herbs, with 7 varieties currently available for your cooking pleasure.

Does your garden need a shrub for variety? We have some beautiful large Pieris (Andromeda) which would be a beautiful specimen plant in a shady area. They are carefree and even deer resistent! From the early spring red foliage to the lovely white flowers, what’s not to love about Pieris?

Mo’ Scrubs by Toya: Enjoy the summer bite free and burn free with new products from Mo’ Scrubs! All natural mosquito repellent spray and balm now available! Also, if you purchased the 8oz spray bottle last summer, you can purchase a refill bag for $9! All natural SPF 30 water resistant sunscreen is also now available.

Sourdough Bread loaves are back and Brownies, Blueberry Zucchini Bars and Orange Blueberry Bars. Friendship Breads will be back on the market in few weeks (They consumer a lot of my time and with the garden exploding with great vegetables, I’ll work them in when I can.)

News From Our Growers:

Farrar Farms LLC, Sow’s Ear Piggery, Quarter Spring Farm and Wedge Oak Farm: We all have great selections of Meats for the upcoming Fourth of July Holiday.

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farm): Try our Rutabaga, Holy Basil (Tulsi), and Borage.

As a cross between turnips and cabbage, rutabagas have a sweeter, buttery and sweet-savory flavor. The roots, which are high in fiber but low in calories, can be eaten raw or cooked, they can be mashed, roasted, sautéed, fried, added to soups, and even eaten raw in salads or coleslaw.

Holy Basil (Tulsi) has floral and peppery notes with a spiced, lemony aroma and flavor. It is taken to ensure vibrant health and longevity. Tulsi is an adaptogenic, digestive, expectorant, and antioxidant.

Borage has many health-promoting properties, and has been used to decrease inflammation, improve skin health, and decrease symptoms of asthma. The leaf has a cucumber-like taste, and is often used in salads or as a garnish. The flower has a sweet honey-like taste and is often used to decorate desserts and cocktails, most commonly, frozen in ice cubes.

RnR Farms: Lettuce, lettuce, lettuce!!! Our lettuce is always naturally grown, in the ground, with love and care! Remember that during these hot and humid summer months, plan on giving your lettuce an ice bath before you eat it. That should quench any bitterness that may have crept in because of the heat and humidity. We also have a little bit of kale and some more zucchini this week. Enjoy!

Mama D’s Bakery: Thank you to everyone for a record week last week! We really do appreciate y’all so much! This week we are expanding our bagel flavor choices to include the “Everything” bagel and blueberry bagels. We have also added mini scones (they are about half the size of the regular ones) in both flavors.

Flying S Farms: Pole Beans, Cabbage, Cucumbers, Kale, Onions, Several different varieties of Summer Squash and Zucchini Squash and Green Tomatoes.

Look forward seeing you “At the Curb" of Quinn’s Mercantile Wednesday July 1st from 5:00 – 6:30pm, please contact me if you are unable to make delivery or are running late, please phone, email or text me so we can make arrangements to get your order to you.

News from The Manager: Can you believe it, it is our’ Thirteenth’ week offering Curb side delivery! Some have asked it we will be continuing this service, we will eventually get back “On The Porch” anticipating July 1st BUT will continue to offer Curb Side for those that request it and Delivery Service will remain available.

Did you know today, June 21st is the longest day of the year! Happy Father’s Day, enjoy this day and the precious memories they’ve made in our lives.

News From Our Growers:

Welcome Canna Pham Farm: they are a licensed family owned and operated hemp farm right outside of Murfreesboro. We grow, cultivate, harvest, and create all of our own CBD infused products. We offer smokable hemp flower, CBD infused lotions, CBD infused muscle rubs, and consumable CBD oil.

Our crop is tested by the state as well as additional third party testing.

Trinity Rose Oberhasli Dairy Goats: Will not be on the Market this week but will return next week with lots of milk, kefir and cheese.

RnR Farms: We have a bunch of lettuce and we will all Summer, Fall, and Winter! All naturally grown, in the ground, with zero pesticides used. We also have more zucchini, and possibly some chard and kale. And tomatoes and cucumbers are just around the corner!

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farm):This week we are spotlighting our cardamom honey, green leaf lettuce, and microgreens.

Cardamom can be used to treat indigestion, gas and constipation. It also lowers high blood pressure while increasing blood circulation – boosting energy and lowering anxiety. Honey contains antioxidants and has antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.

Our soil and sun grown lettuce has Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and a host of minerals (including Magnesium, Manganese, Folate, and Potassium), as well as antioxidants, and it is delicious!

Microgreens have much higher nutrient levels than the full grown veggies, and work well added to smoothies, salads, or baked dishes. Microgreens are a little larger and older than sprouts but not quite as large as the regular vegetable, and they taste great! We have Turnip-Mustard, Speckled Pea, and Sunflower microgreens.

Mama D’s Bakery: Hi everyone! We wanted to say thank you to all of y’all that have been buying our products and continuing to support local businesses! We appreciate it so much!
This week we have added New York style bagels and Cream Cheese Danishes. We hope y’all enjoy them.

Flying S Farms: Jade Green Beans, Yellow Straightneck Squash and Zucchini, Pickling (called Pickling because they are a smaller cucumber great for pickling but also do well in salads) and Slicing Cucumbers (great in salads or dip in your favorite dressing), have been added this week, Red Russian Kale is still coming in and available, great raw in salads, enjoy sauted with other vegetables or by itself.

Look forward seeing you “At the Curb" of Quinn’s Mercantile Wednesday June 24th from 5:00 – 6:30pm, please contact me if you are unable to make delivery or are running late, please phone, email or text me so we can make arrangements to get your order to you.

News from Our Growers:

RnR Farms: we are cranking out the lettuce even as the weather turns warm. We have a huge selection of all types of lettuces: green and red leaf, romaine, butterhead, and even some kale. And we are in the middle of salad week on our Facebook page https://facebook.com/rnrfarmstn where we are sharing tips and recipes for all things lettuce!

Here is one of our delicious recipe…Southwest Chicken Salad

1 bag RnR Farms Red Leaf
1-2 grilled chicken breast
1/2 can of corn (drained)
1/2 can of Black beans (drained)
1 cup of grape tomatoes (halved)
1 Cucumber (peeled and sliced)
3 oz. Shredded cheese
Avocado and tortilla strips, optional

Directions:
Assemble salad and use a 1:1 ratio of ranch and your favorite barbecue sauce. Enjoy!

Note: I like to quickly marinate chicken breasts before I grill them. Marinate for 15-30 minutes with 1/4 cup olive oil, a heavy splash of apple cider vinegar, and salt and pepper to your liking.

Carole’s Herbs (CS3Farm): We have early Romaine lettuce, chicory, and microgreens, as well as our delicious nutrient-dense Farmed and Foraged Greens. We also have herbal honey, gourmet mustard, and herbal teas for what ails you!

Green romaine and curly lettuce is coming in strong, as is our chicory! We have chicory leaf, which has a unique, bitter taste that adds a special “kick” to salads, sandwiches, and many other meals. Our bodies need bitter for digestion and other functions, so why not try some that is nutritious?

Add nutrition, texture, and taste to your salad or sandwich with Mustard, Kale, and Turnip Microgreens. There’s just the right amount of bite to get your taste buds’ attention! Microgreens have much higher nutrient levels than the full grown veggies, and work well adding to smoothies, salads, or baked dishes.

You will love our Farmed and Foraged greens. This blend is a great tame & wild hybrid salad complement or substitute, it’s awesome on sandwiches, and it is quite delicious topping a burger or other sandwich. If you tried forage greens you will appreciate the tasty, nutrient dense, blend that will either replace or complement your salad.

Nom Noms Dog Treats: Want to share with you the new additions to our menu. We have new treats size and a new treat flavor.

Now offering the Bite Size mini treat for those small doggies and training treats for pups.

The new flavor is Peanut Butter Banana. We have always made this treat however it is now made with flour instead of oats.

Short Mountain Cultures: Some of our Short Mountain Cultures favorites are back in stock this week! Our kimchi is made with locally grown napa cabbage, purple daikon radishes, green onions, ginger and our chili garlic sauce. ABC tempeh has also returned! Organic adzuki beans, black beans, chickpeas and millet make this delicious soy-free, protein rich tempeh! Our cold and bubbly water kefir and kombucha are also particularly refreshing as the weather heats up! Available by the bottle or half gallon jug (by the way, we take this back to reuse)!

Wedge Oak Farm: New this week: Peach and Fig Fried Pie Filling and Jam….This pie filling and jam is packed with fresh peaches! It also has dried figs that have been soaked in brandy (don’t worry, the brandy cooks off during the long cook time).

Flying S Farms: Red Stem Kale, Swiss Chard, Large head Cabbage, Hakurei Turnips, Salad and Candy Onions, Sour Dough Breads and Friendships Breads
