06.27.2022 - At the Market Tonight
/
It's Market Monday, and we're going to be out here rain or shine this evening. It's one week after the Summer Solstice and we are experiencing some seasonal changes. We have a lot to report! First, we will be closed next week for the July 4th holiday, so double-up on your favorite staples if you can. Live music is back tonight! Sugar City Music will be serenading us while we shop and dine. Our old friend Mike aka The Bearded Vegan is back for a pop-up appearance this evening, so it's a great chance to stock up on his Jamaican patties and other delicious alkaline foods.
The arrival of Summer also means a transition in the available produce. This will be the last market of the season for Winter Park Urban Farm, so if you're into freezing and canning peak season goods, this might be a good week to buy extra. Mason will be back with his freshly-harvested goods in October. Fleet Farming will be sticking it out this summer with everything that can be grown in the summer months. We also received the sad news that this will be the last week Greenworks Orlando is at the market. The city has had to suspend the commercial composting program, so this is the last week to drop off your home compost for free. If you're interested in checking out the service provided by O-Town Compost, they are offering $15 off to new customers using the code COMPOST4THEFUTURE.
As always, we have A LOT of beautiful food and handmade goods on deck for the evening.
We hope to see you at the market.
With Gratitude,
Gabby Lothrop
Market Director
