Market Reminder & Holiday Pickup Schedule!

Gearing up for a three day Labor Day extravaganza? Don’t forget to order all the noms you’ll need before The Market closes tomorrow at noon. Surely a hot, humid, holiday weekend like this qualifies as a great reason to break out the barbecue and invite over a whole mess of folks. Allow me to suggest some offerings:

• Italian sausage links from Falling Sky Farm. Seeing the success of their apple brat special last week, these clever farmers have decided to offer the same deal on their delicious Italian sausage. Buy 10 pounds, and you save $1.50 per pound! If you think you’ll never use that much meat, throw one of these babies on a bun with some caramelized peppers and onions, and say hello to your new favorite food!

• Farm fresh eggs a’plenty from any of our talented, chicken herding farmers. Brown, white, green, or jumbo, these are sure to make the best deviled eggs you’ve ever tasted.

• Ice cold watermelon from Green Acres Atkins. Short of a blast from the hose, there’s nothing more refreshing than chilled watermelon. This may be the last week we have them, so order now while the getting is good.

All this and more could be yours this Saturday, just in time to throw the best Labor Day bash on the block! On the other hand, if you’ll be out of town this weekend but still want to eat great next week, we’ve got that covered too. We’re moving the Monday pickup to Tuesday so no one has to miss out on The Market’s offerings. That’s right; you can have your cake and eat it too, as long as it’s zucchini bread made with locally produced zucchini and eggs!
