The Market is Open with New Products!

Hey There Food Club,

The market is open, and even in the dead of winter, our growers keep us excited and full with loads of new products like…

• Heritage breed pasture-raised brown eggs from McSwain Ranch. Our favorite lamb grower also raises happy and healthy hens that are now laying delicious eggs!

• Red Russian kale from Arkansas Natural Produce, which I’d say should be sauteed with smoked paprika.

• A whole host of preserved products from Drewry Farms & Orchards, including spicy pickled green tomatoes, chow-chow, apple jelly, blueberry peach spread, cinnamon apple jelly, peach spread, rhubarb berry jam, and Kenny’s best ever salsa. They’re also baking apple cranberry, honey sweet potato, and Italian garlic and herb breads, harvesting honey, and yes, they’ve STILL got plenty of Arkansas black apples!

• Tammy Sue’s Critters is at it again, this time with adorable pumps filled with her homemade goat’s milk lotions. These come in a variety of scrumptious scents including cherry almond, gracious gardenia, grapefruit, juicy pear, lavender, lemon verbena, lemongrass, midnight pomegranate, peppermint, southern peach, or unscented.

• Willow rooting compound from Food For Thought Farm. I had to Google it, but this stuff apparently works magic for propagating plant cuttings.

Thank you for supporting local growers all year-round!
