ALFN Local Food Club:  Market Reminder


Remember to finalize your orders in the market before tomorrow at noon!

Mushrooms, berries, melons and veggies are still in abundance this week. As a friendly reminder with the heat we are having, remember to quickly take your produce to a cool area after the market. If you plan on picking up your produce on Monday, make sure you don’t select products that can easily go bad. We refrigerate everything we can, but the melons, greens and other fruits have been sun AND heat ripened so they are best consumed fresh or processed for storage.

All of this is a good thing. I don’t want food that spoils slowly. I’m not interested in eating cardboard, but food that is ready to be eaten now. Fresh has its challenges, but there is a greater joy in the having peach juice dribble down your chin. So tie on a bib and let’s dig in.

Sincerely,

Kyle Holton
Program & Market Manager

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm. week of July 12, 2015


Blueberry u-pick across the road opened up this weekend, inspiring me to hustle on saturday and offer the same for raspberries, currants and vegetables. We had a few eager pickers and will continue this weekend. You too may wish to try u-pick, especially if you want to freeze some chard for the winter.

A couple of new entries this week: beet tops, summer squash and the napa cabbage is joined by an early white cabbage, the Tiara.

Eggs prices are going to increase this week but I will be offering different sized dozens: medium, large, extra large, maybe even a few jumbos. This is not because my feed costs have gone up but the average egg size has gone down, due to the new younger flock. So my average price has gone down while my costs stay the same, comprends?

I got an email today from Palatine Fruit saying they could deliver cherries this wednesday. But that’s too short notice. Let me know if you want cherries next week at $55/20 lb box.

The season of bounty is upon us!

Healthy eating
