Dothan, Alabama:  May 8, 2021 Weblog, We are Open for Orders!

GROWER & MARKET NOTES

NEW & RELISTED Sprouting Broccoli – Avalon Farms Cabbage – Avalon Farms Leeks – Avalon Farms * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

A Big THANK YOU to everyone who came out to Open House today. While there were several of our Market Vendors with obligations elsewhere, we are so thankful for our great folks who participated and represented Market at Dothan.

With that said, keep your eyes open for any product additions that are made later today or tomorrow. While we all strive to get listings completed by 5pm, word is that our folks have been scattered all over the Wiregrass today which makes it tricky.

Keep your eyes open for new and relisted vegetables too – its easy enough for your editor to spot new listings but the relisted favorites are a bit tricker to keep up with!

THANK YOU so much for your trust in our products!

AVALON FARMS:

The Dothan Nursery Mother’s Day Event was a great kick-off to our Summer farmer’s markets. It has been a beautiful day filled with beautiful people. Thanks to all.

The bees have found the squash and they are finally getting pollinated. Yay! Yellow squash and zucchini are available this week. Zephyr squash and cucumbers will be here soon.

8 Health Benefits of Carrots & Beets

1. Carrots Are In Fact Great for Your Eyesight: Carrots have a lot of beta-carotene which once it is in the liver converts to Vitamin A. This essential vitamin is used in the retina to help with night vision. Beets also have a high level of beta-carotene too!

2. Carrots & Beets Help to Fight Cancer: Carrots have been shown to reduce the risk of colon, breast, and lung cancer. Beetroot extract has been used to treat cancers of the prostate, breast, and pancreas.  If you are looking for health benefits of carrots and beets, this is more than enough to convince me to keep them in my diet.

3. Prevent Infection and Inflammation: Beets contain betaine which is a nutrient that fights inflammation, increases white blood cell count, which then has a positive impact on inflammation. Carrots have been known to prevent infection for centuries. When shredded raw or boiled and then mashed into mush, it can be used on cuts to heal them.

4. Perfect Combo for a Body Cleanse: The Vitamin A in carrots helps to flush out the liver and reduces fat and bile that has built up. Beets are another great way to rid toxins from the bloodstream and the liver.

5. Natural Energy Source: Beets and carrots are a naturally high source of energy as they both contain high levels of sugar but are low in calories.  For moms that work at home and homeschool like myself, this is one of the top health benefits of carrots and beets that is important.  Anything natural to boost energy in my life is a must.

6. Their Greens Are Awesome Too: The green on the top of both carrots and beets have a lot of iron. Beet tops especially have more iron than even spinach!  Toss the whole thing into your soup or juice blend!  I struggle with anemia, and most often taking supplements doesn’t work well with my system.  Eating meat isn’t always convenient, but I can easily add beets and their greens to various green smoothies.

7. Prevents Strokes and Heart Attacks: Eating just six carrots a week has been credited with lowering your risk for strokes. Foods rich in beta-carotene like beets and carrots lower the risk of heart attacks.

8. Vitamin A Rocks: Both beets and carrots contain high levels of Vitamin A. This vitamin protects the skin, hair, and nails from sun damage and helps them from drying out. Vitamin A also prevents acne, dry skin, and even wrinkling.

This online farmers market allows you to buy directly from multiple farms committed to chemical-free and local produce all year long! CHEMICAL-FREE means produce and pastures grown without synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, or insecticides. LOCAL means within 80 miles from the market pickup locations (usually much much closer). Do you know someone who grows chemical-free food in the area? Get them in touch with us. Know someone who wants fresh food? Spread the word. Put the two together, and that’s growing organically!
