Online Market is Open!

We are only a couple of weeks away from our first Farm to Table dinner! It’s going to be an amazing event and I can’t wait to share a meal with our farmers and market customers. If you would like more information about the dinner, check out the Facebook event page – https://www.facebook.com/events/1476428759319521/

Hope you’ve checked out M & D Specialty Growers plants, shrubs and trees online. All of the items they grow are hardy for this area and healthy. Ms. Dorothy let me know that coming soon they will be offeriing LYCORIS (Spider Lilies) mixed colors(red, gold, white), in 1 gal pots.

Opossum Hollow Produce will begin coming on Saturdays only. Make sure to reserve your eggs by ordering through the online market.

R Family Farm is now offering ground buffalo! They are not raising it but they have a good relationship with the farmer who is (he was their orthodontist) and they are pleased to be selling his product. It’s a great addition to our market. I’m not sure it will be available yet online since this is a new product so be sure to visit them at the outdoor market if you are interested in purchasing some.

Skopp Bakery has a great variety of jams and jellies using locally grown fruits. Her peach jams were made from peaches on a tree in her yard! It is so good.

The Bread Basket offers a variety of loaf breads and I can attest to the ciabatta bread – it is great for sandwiches.

Perennial Gardens has beautiful, healthy plants and flowers available as well as some succulents. Stop by her table and check things out.

All of our farmers are working hard to keep the produce coming. This week we have started seeing sweet potatoes.

Remember, ordering online ensures the items you want are available and you can pick them up Saturday morning between 9 and noon and shop the produce while you’re here.

Have a great week!
