Market News you should know...
The Market closes Monday at 8:00pm!
My Daily Bread does NOT have offerings on the Market this week. Bruce will be having surgery on Thursday. Please keep Bruce, Dabrielle and their son Brandon in your prayers as they journey through this difficult time.
Please remember that minimums must be met for each Market to ensure delivery by our Farmers! Be sure and get your order in and thank you for supporting our LOCAL Farmers!
…this and that…
Sarah Rockey, who has dedicated her time to the Market since its creation and who now manages the Hamilton Mill Market, celebrated her 30th Birthday on Friday, April 22nd! Happy Birthday, Sarah! Not only does Sarah work at Market, she also works for Vicky and Steve at Fry Farm, Ricky Brown at Back River Farm and Drisdell Consulting! You are are an amazing woman and I am grateful that you are a part of Market. You are a blessing in my life!
Cedar Rock Dairy has Buttermilk for $5.50/half gallon. If you would like some, please TEXT me at 404-432-4337.
Ricky Brown of Back River Farm has Red Russian Kale. Be sure and check it out!
Greg Hutchins of Heritage Farm has let me know that chicken will be available next month. He will also be processing Ducks and Turkeys. For those of you who had the pleasure of trying the Turkey Bologna, be advised it will be available again! WoW! I really like the Turkey Bologna and it is a treat to have Lunchmeat with no nitrites! This week, Greg has listed Chicken Gizzards and Pork Spare Ribs on Special. The Ribs are meaty and have excellent flavor – great grilled on slow cooked in the crockpot!
Doug of Doug’s Garden still has Carrots and is offering them again this week! Per Doug, this will probably be the last week for them because they will start to lose their sweetness. Three different quantities to choose from! These are YUMMY!
Vicky and Steve of Fry Farm are trying something new this year! Harvest Boxes. These will include a variety of veggies available for Harvest on Market Day! Matt Fry, Vicky and Steve’s son who also works at the Farm will also include a handy “Usage Guide” in case you are not familiar with the included Veggies! Yay Matt! In addition, this week Vicky has listed: Popcorn, Cilantro, 2 types of Watrecress, Red Russian Kale, Lettuce Mix, 2 types of Spinach and Hakurei Turnips.
Kathy Barnes of So-Koi is offering a Special on Einkorn Berries and Einkorn Ground Flour. Great savings! Be sure and check it out!
Be sure and check out the Water Buffalo and Alpaca offerings from David and Shalley of Carrell Farms! All of their Sausage Products are delicious; however, I am partial to the Water Buffalo Longaniza and the Jalapeno Cheese Water Buffalo Sausage! Check them out!
In addition to sharing the responsibility of raising Water Buffalo and Alpacas, Shalley Carrell has worked hard to develop a Skin Care line of Products made with Tallow from the animals they raise! Many of you have tried some of Shalley’s products and have given RAVE reviews. If you haven’t yet had the pleasure, be sure and peruse the offerings from Buffalo Gal Grassfed Beauty. You will not be disappointed! Thanks, Shalley for all of your dedication and hard work! Also, Happy Belated Birthday!
Veggie Patch Once again this year, The Veggie Patch is offering Herb Seedlings and Vegetable Seedlings. Check out their greens and other produce!
Watsonia Farms has Strawberries and Asparagus this week! Don’t miss the opportunity – they won’t be around for long!
The Black Lab, “Dudley” is still vacationing up in Ohio with my brother Michael and his wife Karen and his Springer Spaniel cousin, Doyle. He celebrated his 11th birthday recently. I miss him like crazy but know that he is well-loved. Michael takes Doyle and Dudley and their friend Macy to a 100 acres property to run on a daily basis so he has plenty of room to explore the woods and run! He also has a fenced yard to play in and it has been ‘Dudley proofed’ – I told Michael he was the ultimate ‘escape artist’ and he believed me after Dudley ATE 2 pickets to escape! just thought you would like an update…
