The Wednesday Market:  Happy Sunday! The Market is Open!


Good afternoon.

The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your order by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 2 and 4 p.m. Wednesday. See the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link: https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market

If you have been a regular Wednesday Market customer and reader of this weblog, then you know that my favorite season is Summer. Fresh homegrown tomatoes are particularly delightful to my palate. While I like tomatoes served in various ways, I most look forward to caprese salad. Sounds fancy, doesn’t it? It is not. Caprese salad is simply sliced tomatoes layered with sliced fresh mozzarella, sprinkled with a touch of coarse salt, garnished with thinly sliced fresh basil leaves, and christened with some good aged balsamic vinegar. If you have never tasted caprese salad, I hope that you will give a try. Maybe you’ll love it as much as I do!

Thank you for supporting Georgia Grown. Have a great Sunday, and we’ll see you at the Market!

Thanks,

Beverly

Hi Friends,

It is a special week for us as we celebrate Lynnita’s 6th decade with all of her kids and grandkids All 14! We have lots of extra picking hands this week, so I am celebrating too.

Lots of good stuff from here this week. Melody will be returning, also Tom McColley and Kenny Point.

We have some large, tender, sweet roasting beets this week that are great wrapped in foil and roasted on the grill. Come see us and stock up for the 4th.

RnR Farms: This week we still have the best naturally grown lettuce in Middle Tennessee. And we will have it all through the summer, fall, and winter. It takes hard work and dedication to nurse a crop that hates heat and humidity through the heat and humidity. But we are committed (in more ways than one) to providing locally grown, naturally grown, better than organic salad greens to you year-round. We also grow items that complement salads, such as cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and other greens. So as the weather heats up, choose an RnR Farms salad bag and the appropriate accessories to fully enjoy the coolness that locally grown, naturally grown salads will bring.

Quarter Spring Farm: Summer is great. Long days at the lake and long nights around the campfire. Good times with friends and family. And bugs. Lots of bugs. If you want to enjoy being outside without being feasted on by flying foes, try our Bug Off bar from Quarter Spring Farm. It is formulated to be easy on your skin and the planet, but hard on bugs. We have several new scents available for our lotion bars and have released our seasonal summer soap scents: Kiss from a Rose and Cream Soda. Be sure to check them out this week on the market.

Emerald Acres: this week enjoy our baby carrots, bundled larger carrots, green pickling and green slicing cucumbers and our popular beautiful bouquets this week flowers are Snap Dragons.

Sow’s Ear Piggery: we have added some new additions this week, including pork ribs and tenderloin. Also, be thinking ahead for the Independence Day weekend, we have lots of great choices for grilling and smoking. As always, our pork is raised outdoors, in sunshine and fresh air. No antibiotics or hormones. Fed non-GMO feed and fresh vegetables.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse: We’ve added Hosta Plants this week, miniature and midsize as well Hanging Baskets and several Herb Plants.
