Opening Bell: Elephant Garlic, Pound Cake, Eggs, Muscadines!


Good afternoon!
Welcome to the world, Natalie Kay! Phyllis Strack’s newest grand-daughter was born Thursday and weighed 7 pounds 14 oz. You can bet Natalie will be bounding around Strack Farm on Lower Ridge Road very soon! Natalie’s Mom, Mary Rose, works at Julie’s Sweet Shoppe and is doing great. Congrats to all!

The big news on the local food scene right now is the early freeze we experienced this weekend. At Cedar Rock Ridge, we had 29 degrees on Friday night, and 28 degrees on Saturday night. This means that our Peppers are done for the year. Luckily though, I’ve been preserving them all summer! Search for “dehydrated” and you will find several listings. Also, other Growers still have summer produce growing in season-extending high tunnels.

Check out the big and beautiful Peppers from Kellogg Valley Farm! Red, orange, purple and green. Stuffed peppers anyone?

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. Over 600 items available now!

Most items are listed by 6pm Sunday, but check back again before the market closes Tuesday night to see if any other items are ready to be harvested for you! Eat fresh! Eat local! Eat for better health!

And save your eggshells throughout the week for the laying hens! :-)

The market is now OPEN for orders. Click here to start shopping:
