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! :-)

Tamales! Opening Bell: Flowers, Honey, Spinach, Chicken!


Good afternoon!

You probably saw American astronauts doing a space walk outside the International Space Station this week, but what you didn’t know is what they were looking for. Turns out they were looking for Maria’s delicious BBQ Pork! Fortunately for us earth-dwellers, we can find Maria and her crock pot full of hot BBQ Pork at market pick-up this Friday! How easy is that?!?

It’s Tamale time! This Friday we’ll have Doña Estela’s amazing homemade Tamales! She will make them Friday morning and have them at market Friday afternoon. You can get 5 Pork tamales for $7, or 5 Chicken tamales for $7, or 5 jalapeño and cheese tamales for $7. To place an order, please add a note to your CLG order, or text me at 501-339-1039. Delicious with sides of re-fried beans and rice, topped with a bit of salsa and sour cream.

Has this ever happened to you? You’re piddling in your garden to see what survived with winter, and come across something you don’t know what it is? Is it a weed, or is it something you planted last year? If you text me a picture of it, I will try to identify the plant for you. Just text 501-339-1039. We’ve got a good variety of plants listed on the market now. To see the plants available on the market now, search the word: PLANT.

Opening Bell: Spinach, Cheese, Pork, Plants!


Good afternoon!

Spring has sprung! I’m getting excellent reports from our growers about early crops ready to be harvested. Spinach, onions, asparagus, lettuce, radishes, turnips, etc. The mild winter and abundant rain means lots of local vegetables will be available sooner than last year. Early shoppers also saw the first cabbage of the year on the extra table Friday!

This week you will also find several options for cut flower arrangements from Bell Urban Farm. Get one for yourself, and one to give to a neighbor or loved one. They will Be beautiful for well over a week.

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 over 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!

Several varieties of cheese are now available under the dairy section.

At Cedar Rock Ridge this week, I divided my scarlet Beebalm, horseradish, and comfrey plants, so they are now available well-rooted and ready to grow in your garden. In about two weeks, we will have orange marigolds, yellow marigolds, and vinca plants in 4-packs available. Marigolds placed around your garden attract pollinators and deter pests. With marigolds, more is better. Lemongrass plants will also be ready soon!
