Farm News
Farming is darn hard after a snow storm…
Sorry folks, there won’t be any greens at market tomorrow.
THERE’S TOO MUCH SNOW AND IT’S TOO COLD.
However, we will have lots of Herbal Tea to warm us… Spearmint, Peppermint, Lemon Balm, Nettle, Chamomile, Lemon Verbena.
In addition, we will have: eggs, red and yellow onions, carrots, celeriac, sunchokes, and shallots thanks to Pak Express, Zephyr Farm and Scratch Farm.
See you tomorrow!

Get Free Tomatoes
Hi folks! I would like to take the time to thank you for buying local and supporting your farmers market.
Over the past few years however, sales have been steady, but have not increased. I think the market is finally saturated.
So, I’d like to challenge you to encourage people in your world who have never shopped at a farmers market, or only rarely shop at farmers markets, to do so; maybe you can even bring them!
Here’s an incentive: Bring a friend to the market starting January 28 through the end of February, and introduce them to me. I’d love to chat with them about our farm and what we offer. If they buy something, I will give you 2 FREE POUNDS of tomatoes in August! MMMM… can’t wait for those delicious, juicy, melt-in-your-mouth beauties!
