Market Open

Hi everyone-

The Market is open for ordering. We have lots of delicious, nutritious, locally raised items available this week. We are working hard to get to where Conway Locally Grown will be the place where you do most of your grocery shopping.

Here are some of this weeks highlights:

* We do have Raw Milk Cheeses from Honeysuckle Lane Cheese. * Ratchford Farms is now offering Buffalo Jalapeno and Cheese Bratwurst. Yum! * Rattles Garden has a few dozen eggs and is offering a few Strings of Cayenne Pepper. * Cedar Rock Acres is offering some really nice jellies. * Providence Farm is offering tasty Peach-Vanilla Syrup(sweetened with sugar). It goes perfect with vanilla ice cream. * If you haven’t tried one of Petit Jean Farm’s Sampler of Variety Packs, I suggest you do so. You’ll be in for a real treat. * We at Falling Sky Farm should have plenty of eggs and chickens this week, we are going to have breast meat and legs available a little later in this week (I’ll send out an email when we list them on Monday Night), and don’t forget to order your Thanksgiving Turkey, availability is starting to get limited.

In other news, we are going to have our first Conway Locally Grown Dinner on Sunday October 19th at Pia’s on Front Street from 5:30 to 8:00. I’d like as many of you to come as possible but we’d also like you to recruit a friend or two who has yet to try Conway Locally Grown. You’ll get a chance to meet and chat with the farmers and will get to enjoy some really great food. The dinner will cost b/t $25 and $30 per person and seating is limited to 60 people. To reserve your spot, please email me at hopkins.cody@gmail.com. Please let me know which entree you would prefer in the email. Here is the menu:

Appetizers
