Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  This Week at the Market


The market is open for ordering. Though I do not have a lot listed this week I will have the stand stocked on Saturday. We took time for family this week so I won’t have as much coming from the kitchen.
Have a great week!

Champaign, OH:  Tuesday Reminder!


Half a mile from the county fair
And the rain came pourin’ down
Me and Billy standin’ there
With a silver half a crown
Hands are full of a fishin’ rod
And the tackle on our backs
We just stood there gettin’ wet
With our backs against the fence…
(And, It Stoned Me-Van Morrison)

And, yes…we have rain!! So badly needed, and so welcome.

I hope that you are coming off of the holiday on a good note. I hope that you celebrated in any way that made you happy. I took the weekend off after a fun filled opening night, Friday night, of Hippie and the Farmer’s Pizza Farm Friday, and the rest of the weekend I caught up on reading, enjoying a few cocktails, and getting a bit of just plain downtime in before my next few crazy weeks launch.

And, since it feels like a Monday, I wanted to remind you that it is a Tuesday, and the market will close for weekly orders at 8am, today…I know…but really, it takes little time to get your week all started on the right foot with ordering from the market…

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

Champaign, OH:  Happy Fourth!


I’m hoping that you all have had a lovely holiday weekend, and that you remember to get your orders in by 8am, tomorrow!

XOXO,

  • Seasoned and Grilled up for a vegetarian option at a cookout
  • In a Salad with tomatoes, sweet onions, fresh mint & basil leaves, feta cheese, and a splash of balsamic vinegar

Happy Independence Day everyone! We hope that you are having a great holiday, and staying COOL! This week’s forecast is looking HOT, so why not stay inside and order your farm fresh produce, meats, and locally produced baked goods and crafts from the comfort of your home! Order from now until Thursday at 5pm.

This Saturday is our July Kids Day! Here’s the info if you’re interested in bringing your kiddos:

This Saturday is Kids Day! The Market is open 8am-12pm, with Kids Day from 9am-12pm.

Be sure to “RSVP” those kiddos for the 2022 POP Club!

What does Kids Day look like this year?

1. We brought back the 2 Bite Club! We will be preparing 2 Bite Club samples for each kiddo to taste a different fruit, veggie, or recipe each month, purchased straight from our SSFM Farmers.
2. Each month your kiddos will receive POP tokens to spend with our farmers on veggies and fruits!
3. We will have local non-profits set up with additional activities, just for kids.
4. This will continue to be a FREE and fun event brought to you by Simmons Foods and Arvest Bank!

This will help us know how many kiddos plan to stop by during Kids Day (please remember that the program is set up for ages 3-12). Don’t forget, you’ll have to “RSVP” each month.

When you arrive at the market on Kids Day, head straight to the Outdoor Farmers Market Hub located in the Memorial Park concession stand from 9am-12pm to participate in POP Club activities. 2 Bite Club, POP tokens pick up, and all other information will be located at the concession stand.Your kiddos will earn their $2 tokens each Kids Day, then be able to shop the Outdoor Market, using their money to purchase fruits, vegetables, or a plant that produces fruit or vegetables. When you pick up your kits, be sure to peruse the market and check out the young entrepreneur Kids Day booths as well!
