Market News

Hello!
Happy September, everybody!

The month sure started with some drama, as 9" or so rain fell as the remains of Hurricane Harvey passed over the region. There was some minor crop damage and some typical soil runoff problems, but seems like most farms were spared any major damage. Thankfully!!

We’ve got a great selection this week!! A new selection of late season tomatoes, lots of delicious greens, peppers of all kinds, from sweet to hot! As well as some new varieties of winter squash and lots of great potatoes! Also, don’t let the season end without some more watermelon!! The watermelon and cataloupebare found under the Fruits section of the Market page.

Look to our other vendors to round out the great selection. Wedge Oak Farm has a new Artisan Sausage – mild Italian chicken sausage. Did you know all their artisan sausages are recipe tested and hand made in the commercial kitchen right there on the farm? Pretty cool!

The Bloomy Rind has a large variety of select cheese this week!

We have a new farm with us this week! Check out the Our Growers page and learn more about Athena’s Harvest Farm!

We really appreciate your support!

See you Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee

Greener Acres Farm:  Some Changes to Current Inventory


Changes to Current Inventory

Corn, Half Bushels of Canning Tomatoes and Pickling Cucumbers Currently Out of Stock

  • Weyant Vegetable Farm regretfully announces about a two week shortage of sweet corn. They have corn planned through October; however, the next variety is lagging behind by a few weeks due to the unseasonable weather patterns. We will announce when corn is available again.
  • Green"er" Acres Farm is also noticing changes with tomato production due to the weather patterns. They still have tomatoes available for ordering; however, not in the canning quantities.
  • Rispoli’s Produce also announced there is a temporary shortage in pickling cucumbers, but will have more in a few weeks.
  • Heritage Hills Farm is currently sold out of chicken breasts and thighs, but still has wings, half and whole chicken.

Change in Name and Size of Product

  • Appalachia Malting has changed their name to Golden Farms Milling. Same great company and product, just a new name. They have also changed from 3 pound bags to 5 pound bags. There is a corresponding change in price, but the great news is that it is actually cheaper per pound than previously.
    Baking season is soon upon us, so why not try a more healthy, organic product for your baking needs.
