09.28.2020 - Rain or Shine at the Market Tonight

Rain or Shine Tonight at Stardust, 5-8 pm.

It's Market Monday! We're hoping the forecast is wrong, but either way we'll be open rain or shine tonight.  We hope you'll join us in welcoming Zenn Naturals to the market family.  They'll be offering up some of their early season crops (more to come as they ramp up), including salad greens, eggplant, herbs and radishes.  We're excited to see them at the market! 

As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths.  We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask.  Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.  

We hope to see you at the market.

09.14.2020 - Rain or Shine at the Market Tonight

It's Market Monday! We know we say this all the time, but it bears repeating: We are SO grateful for and impressed by the awesome farmers and entrepreneurs we get to work with each week.  This has been an especially trying year, even for these small business owners who are fairly accustomed to extraordinary challenges.  It's no small feat to grow food, raise livestock, make cheese, catch fish, bake pastries, pickle veggies, ferment kombucha, make jam, cook from scratch (we could go on); and be your own marketing and sales team while you're at it! So even as we are daydreaming about cooler days and peak fall season vegetables, we're just as enthusiastic today about all the incredible abundance we get to enjoy because of these intrepid people.  

We also want to keep thanking you, the market shoppers, for keeping us going through this summer.  Did you know that we've been at this, in the Stardust parking lot, for nearly 12 years?  If it weren't for the amazing vendors, and the awesome shoppers who have committed to local over the years, we definitely wouldn't be here!  We mean it: THANK YOU. 

As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths.  We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask.  Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.  

We hope to see you at the market.

08.03.2020 - At the Market Tonight

Happy Monday!  It's a new month, and we are happy to have been spared by Tropical Storm Isaias.  We're getting used to responding to major disruptions around here, but it's nice not to have to worry about a major storm for now.  It means we get to keep charging on, doing our best to keep our little market buzzing.  

Just in time for this new month, and for National Farmers Market Week, we are thrilled to welcome Slow Turtle Farm back to the market.  Those of you who have been shopping with us for years will remember Carol and her incredible goat cheeses.  We were always overjoyed during kidding season, when Carol would bring baby goats to see us during the market.  A little over two years ago, Carol took a step back from markets to engage in the arduous process of becoming a USDA Grade A Dairy, which will allow her to do more with the products coming from her farm.  It's an incredibly overwhelming process, and is especially hard for small, independent farmstead dairies like Slow Turtle Farm.  After all this time of major sacrifices, piles of challenges, inspections, and more, Slow Turtle Farm is now certified and returning to markets.  We hope you'll join us in welcoming her back to the market family.  

We also received the news this week that Fresh Access Bucks is expanding their unlimited matching program for SNAP/EBT and P-EBT shoppers. Thanks to this program, we will now be able to provide unlimited matching through the end of this year. Stop by the market HQ booth for more details!

As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths.  We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask.  Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.  

We hope to see you at the market.

07.27.2020 - Rain or Shine at the Market Tonight

We're open, Rain or Shine, 5-8 pm.

Well, we've been checking the forecast hourly, even though it can't really guarantee what the weather will look like by the time the market is open!  Either way, we're here to remind you that our market is rain or shine, and we mean it.  So even if we have to put on our rain coats and boots, we'll be there tonight.  

As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths.  We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask.  Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.  

We hope to see you at the market. 

With Gratitude,

Gabby Lothrop 
Market Director
