Online Market is Open!


www.siloamsprings.locallygrown.net

Good morning! Hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend. In just a little over a month the outdoor market will be open in Memorial Park! Opening day is April 18th, mark your calendars.

We are so blessed to have the amazing farmers, bakers, and crafters that make up our market family. So much hard work goes into producing great quality products. I am thankful the community has access to fresh, locally grown food.

New additions this week are Cilantro and Parsley

Enjoy shopping this week. Be sure to check out the great variety of meats available. We offer both chicken and pork now. Beef is coming soon.

Thank you for supporting our vendors! Have a great week and see you Saturday!

Online Market is Open and Special Announcement!

I have a some great news to share with all of you! I was able to connect with a local farm that raises pastured poultry and they have decided to join the market. Please welcome Vandevoir Farms!

Located in Elm Springs, AR, Vandevoir Farms has been raising poultry locally since 2016. The farm started as a commercial free-range chicken operation that offered its birds part-time access to the outdoors. After testing this method, Vandevoir Farms has transitioned to become a small family farm raising poultry on pasture using a variety of movement-based approaches. The Vandevoirs take pride in the care given to their animals by feeding their animals high quality, non-GMO feed, moving their birds to fresh grass and bugs daily, and the consistent fresh air that they provide. Vandevoir Farms currently has a small selection of medium to large whole birds available but will have a new flock of choice cuts and whole birds in time for the Spring market to open.

I couldn’t be more pleased have this farm as part of our market family.

Now you can add chicken to your shopping list. One whole bird can make several meals, plus the frame can be used to make delicious, nutrient rich broth.

Enjoy shopping this week and see you Saturday!

Good morning everyone! It’s a beautiful day and I hope you all are able to get outside and take even just a few minutes to breathe the fresh air and soak up some Vitamin D.
