Tuesday Market this week! August 2- Apples arrive!

Hi Tuesday Market Friends!

It rained! And the whole Valley sighed in relief! Plan a stop to the market this week to high-five your hardworking farmers and buy some ingredients for a lovely farmers’ market dinner. Tuesday night’s forecast looks perfect for cooking! Looking for ideas? A simple way to find new recipes and techniques is to ask the person selling your ingredients to you! Feel free to also stop by the purple market tent to chat recipes!

Apples arrive at the market this week! Park Hill Orchard will have the first of their summer apples, called Pristine-disease resistant, crisp, sweet and tart with tropical notes. They’ll also have berries. Grab some fruit and a cider slushie too!

Abundance Farm will be setting up a children’s activity this week. Stop by to let the little ones have some fun and learn about their work to increase food security.

Hosta Hill, Free Ramblin’ Kids and True North Granola will all be with us this week.

We will have music from Aaron Cooper and Rafe Wolman.

Red Fire Farm will be sampling some varieties of watermelon. A slice of watermelon on a beautiful summer day, what more could you ask for? Find them in the center of the market.

 

A reminder that farm work is year round and requires more than we often think about…Check out this picture from Justamere Tree Farm. They’ve been hard at work stacking 30 cords of wood for the 2017 maple sugaring season.

See you at market,

Niki Lankowski, Market Manager
