Greetings Conway Locally Grown Community,
We’ve had to reschedule a couple times, but the date is finally set for the 2013 Conway Locally Grown Harvest Dinner, featuring ingredients from our very own CLG growers and the fine preparation work of Chef Pam and her crew at Oak Street Bistro. The event will be held at Oak Street Bistro in Conway on Sunday, June 30th beginning at 6pm. This is sure to be a fun and delicious evening so make your plans now! Go to http://clgharvestdinner.eventbrite.com/ to reserve your spots. All proceeds will benefit the St. Peter’s Food Pantry.
Canners, jammers, and food preservationists of all walks, and those of you with plenty of room in your freezer….now is the time to stock up on produce! Strawberries are exploding and other berries are soon to follow. Squash is in – I can’t emphasize enough how good the summer squash and zucchini is that our farmers are harvesting right now. Steam it, sauté it, fry it, eat it raw, freeze it for later – it doesn’t matter, it’s just plain awesome. New potatoes are in too – boil them, melt butter on them, and garnish with fresh rosemary. Can’t beat it folks.
The market is now open. Go to conway.locallygrown.net/market to place your order. Single click the checkout button when you’re finished, and you will receive a confirmation email once your order is placed. Have a wonderful week.
Best regards,
Gabe Levin
CLG Market Director
