Opening Bell: Strawberries, Lettuce, Spinach, Sausage!


Good afternoon!

Freeze warning tonight! Temps tonight will be around freezing so take action now to protect any tomato or pepper plants you may have in your gardens.

The green garlic is just starting to bulb and is really taking off. Get a bundle of 5 stalks and try this delicious spring treat in something for dinner this week.

Kenny’s doing it again! Save a bundle on a 25 pound box of eggs from Drewry Orchards this week. It is literally a box with 25 pounds of fresh eggs. A pound of eggs is between six and 10 eggs so this is around 200 fresh eggs. Share some with your family and neighbors and they’ll love you forever. ! We have egg cartons so you can package them into dozens right at the market. Deviled eggs, boiled eggs, omelettes, quiche, fried eggs, poundcake. The possibilities are endless!

At Cedar Rock Ridge this week, we divided our 5-year-old Solomon’s Seal plant, so 13 potted starts are now available well-rooted and ready to grow in your garden. At pickup on Friday we will have orange marigolds, yellow marigolds, and burgundy halo vinca plants in 4-packs on the extras table. Marigolds placed around your garden attract pollinators and deter pests. With marigolds, more is better. Here’s a WEBLOG special. Text me if you are interested in 18 four-packs of plants for only $20. That’s 72 marigold or vinca plants! Plant some for yourself, and give away 4-packs to your gardening friends and neighbors.

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. We have over 700 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! :-)
