Market Reminder!

It’s another fantastic week in local food, and Arkansas is overflowing with deliciousness! Make sure to get your order in before The Market closes tomorrow morning at 7:30.

After you’ve ordered one of everything our awesome farmers have to offer, check out another way to show your support. One of our favorite farms, Tammy Sue’s Critters, is looking to expand their herd and they need your help to do it. If you can temporarily spare $5 to help them reach their goal, you’ll be ensuring access to all those great soaps, lotions, lip balms, and body butters for years to come. Check out their Kiva Zip page to find out more.

A Note About Monday Pickup:

Opinions differ when it comes to refrigerating certain types of produce, namely tomatoes, potatoes, onions, and garlic. Whether or not these items are put in the fridge upon delivery is up to the farmer, but it’s up to us to make that call when packing Monday orders. Since the kitchen hovers around 80°F, plastic bags trap even the tiniest bit of moisture and create a perfect incubator for mold. With that in mind, we feel refrigeration is the better option. However, if you prefer some things be left out, just leave a comment on your order and we’re happy to oblige!
