Lake Placid Online Farmer's Market:  Happy November--the Market is Now Open!

Hello Everyone,

Hope you are all well and enjoying the lovely (and, in the case of the last few days, warmer than usual) Autumn weather we’ve been having!

After a hiatus, the farmer’s market has started again, just in time for Thanksgiving! Now’s the time to stock up on some items for your family feast, or just because it’s your favorite foods fresh from your local farmers.

We did make a few changes during the hiatus. The small change is the template of the market, which is now decked out in fall colors to celebrate the autumn season. The big change is that payment is now via credit card at checkout to streamline the accounting for the market and make it easier for everyone. It’s a very simple process where you add a credit card, then when returned to your cart for checkout, select that preferred credit card for payment. So then there’s no need to bring money to the market, all you need is to pick up your items on Wednesday afternoon at the Lake Placid Skate Shop (2647 Main Street, across from the Olympic Oval and Olympic Center in Lake Placid).

Here are some exciting new items on sale this market:

Sweet potatoes—medium and large. Perfect for Thanksgiving dinner!

Rutabagas—another excellent autumn/winter treat.

Carrots—A lovely addition to soups and stews as the season gets chilly!

Squash—I know in my house, we love our squash. Butternut and honey nut can even be used in pies “pumpkin pie style” but they are also fantastic baked, sautéed, or mashed.

Kale—A super food! An easy way to add greens to your diet; make smoothies with them, add them to salad, sautée them, steam them….they are a versatile and nutritious treat.

CHEESE!—Asgaard has several different varieties of goat cheese, which can be a perfect appetizer for your Thanksgiving feast; they also have home-made caramels and meat available in the market.

Of course, see the list below for a full listing of items available at this market!

Hope to see you Wednesday, and happy shopping!

Best,
Christie

McColloms Market:  November FFFN Order is Now Open

Hi All:

My apologies for not getting this open earlier today. I’ve been at a Conference in New Hampshire since Wed and just got back. They made us work very hard so I completely lost track of the other tasks that I should be paying attention to.

The Market will be open until Monday night. Pick Up will be on Wed. from 4:30 – 6:30 at my house.

Have a good weekend.

Thanks.

Melinda
