Opening Bell: Coffee, Cheese, Honey, Salad Mix!


Good afternoon!

Another rainy day, so more rainy day activities inside. I potted up 45 giant jalapeño seedlings. My Brad’s atomic grape tomatoes seedlings are now 5 inches tall and could be planted outside in just a couple of weeks. May need frost protection on cold nights. I won’t plant anything in my garden until the third week of March.

Mark your calendar for Saturday, February 29. The Faulkner county seed swap will be held at the Faulkner County library on Tyler street from 11 AM until 1 PM. There’s always a lot of variety. Come by and meet with other gardening enthusiasts. Hope to see you there!

Another entry for your calendar: the 3rd annual plant sale at Bell Urban Farm on Tyler street. It will be held on Saturday, April 18, from 9 AM until 3 PM. Hundreds of varieties of flowers, herbs, and vegetable plants will be available.

Look in the Dairy category for newly listed cheeses! Marinated, feta, pimento…

If the weather holds mild this week, we may have some strawberries on the extra table this Friday. Come early! They won’t last long.

Flying C Ranch offers a great deal on their ground beef in bulk. Five 1-pound pkgs for only $24. Search the word “bulk” for more good deals.

We are normally ready for customers to start arriving around 3 PM if you happen to be out and in the area. Just text me to see if we’re ready.

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. Four instance, type in the word “sale” and see what pops up. We have over 400 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! :-)
