938 And Counting!

That’s right. There are 938 products on The Market right this very minute! Each and every one of them is locally grown, sourced, produced, or otherwise benefits an independent Arkansan business person. I for one can’t think of a better illustration of the vast and varied resources our great state has to offer. Sometimes, it can even be a little overwhelming. With all these great goods available at the click of a mouse, how are we supposed to decide what to order?

Allow Me To Make Some Suggestions:

• Certified Organic new red potatoes and fresh green beans from Green Acres Atkins have just hit The Market. Whether you prefer to savor each individually, or indulge in a classic Southern duet, you’re sure to love the results.

• Pastured chicken breasts from Falling Sky Farm. Chicken may be a staple in a lot of kitchens, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be sensational! Try these oven roasted and stuffed with rosemary chevre from White River Creamery. Served with a simple salad of arugula from Arkansas Natural Produce and fresh blackberries from Barnhill Orchard and you have a delicious dinner that will impress any guest.

If the crazy abundance of fabulous local food is making you as hungry it’s making me, I have great news! You can order all of this and more, as long as you do it before The Market closes tomorrow morning.
