Online Market is Open!


The online market will continue to operate year round. Saturday, April 25th is the last day for pick up to be located at the Main Street Conference Room. Beginning Saturday, May 2nd, all online orders will be available for pick up at the outdoor market.

White River Creamery cheese will be available through online ordering only. Make sure you check out the great variety of cheeses available online each week and place an order by Wednesday at 5 p.m. to ensure it will be at the market for pick up on Saturdays.

Opossum Hollow Produce will not be listing a produce and herb inventory this week so they can have plenty to bring to Opening Day on April 28th. They will have their farm fresh eggs listed online.

One week from Tuesday the outdoor market season begins!

Tuesday, April 28th we open in the park and will be set up from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. These are the vendors we are expecting on Tuesdays:

Perennial Gardens
Susi’s Kitchen
Opossum Hollow Produce
Rainbow’s Produce
Lor Gardens
Vang’s Fresh Market
Xiong Farm
Lee Farm
J.D. Hudson Farms

There will be lots of farm fresh eggs, pastured meats, and beautiful spring produce available.

We will have live music provided by the local band Lore! They will be playing from 5 to 7 p.m. Bring a chair and enjoy a beautiful spring evening at the park.

With our new hours on Tuesdays, now you can stop by after work or come downtown on Tuesday evenings to eat at one of the great local restaurants and pick up your favorite items at the market!

Next Saturday’s newsletter will highlight our Saturday vendors. If you don’t see someone on Tuesday you can expect they will be here on Saturday, with the exception of Green Pastures Products and Create 4 Good, who are both taking a break from market this season.

Five-Herb Frittata with Prosciutto and Parmesan
CONTRIBUTED BY NANCY SILVERTON

http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/five-herb-frittata-with-prosciutto-and-parmesan

PUBLISHED JANUARY 2015

INGREDIENTS
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons water
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped mint
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
1 teaspoon finely chopped oregano
1 teaspoon finely chopped thyme
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 ounce prosciutto, torn (2 slices)
Coarsely ground black pepper
Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese shavings, for serving

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the water and salt. Beat in the mint, parsley, chives, oregano and thyme. In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt the butter. Add the eggs and cook over moderately low heat, without stirring, until just beginning to set at the edge, about 3 minutes. Using a spatula, lift the edge and tilt the pan so the egg mixture can seep underneath. Continue to cook, lifting the frittata and tilting the pan occasionally, until the frittata is just set and creamy on top, 3 to 5 minutes longer. Scatter the prosciutto over the frittata and slide it onto a plate. Garnish with coarsely ground pepper and shaved Parmigiano and serve right away.
