ALFN Local Food Club:  Market Reminder


Remember to finalize your order before noon tomorrow when the market closes for this week.

Take advantage of the new products in the market such as Marconi peppers and garlic. Melons are still in production and there are still plenty of carnivorous choices from lamb to ground beef.

Enjoy your week. We’ll see you on Saturday!

Sincerely

Kyle Holton
Program & Market Manager

Martin's Farmstand:  Big cabbage and chicks


Another busy summer day is drawing to close. There is a goodness in the tired that results from meaningful physical labor. The sleep of a laboring man is sweet the Bible says.
It is midsummer now and there is a growing selection of good food at our stand. This evening Levi came in with eleven huge cabbage heads from his patch. As a group they weighed in at 125 lbs! We also have a selection of smaller cabbage. The carrots have grown a lot in the last week and we are starting to offer them with the tops off. The first sweet corn still is not ready. I think it may be ready by the weekend or sometime next week.

Cherie Whitten found a good source for meat chicks. There were 3300 chicks and there are still several hunderd of them for sale. If you wish to buy some you can either contact Cherie at 328-5559 or we have a couple hundred here. We should also have an abundance of chicken meat for sale in about 8-10 weeks from now. Daniel

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm week of July 19 2015


Enjoying the weather? when you look at the continental maps for temperature anomalies we are the sweet spot around the great lakes, very little deviation from ‘normal’. See that white zone? But overall, it’s a scorcher and on track to be the hottest year on record: here’s the link to the full story.

Here’s a map showing what I mean.

The lettuce is feeling the heat, starting to bolt, but the sweet potato plants are loving it. Lots of zucchini, beans are in flower, and raspberries! I have yet to see such a crop. I’ll have prepicked and U-pick open this week.

There are pasture raised roasting chickens in the freezer, whole, halfs or quarters.

Palatine Fruit next week. Place your order: I have so far a box of cherries for Joe, Irene, Lenore and Norma. Tell me if I missed you or you decline.

Healthy eating,
Ian and Cami

GFM :  Eating Good and Healthy


The market is open for orders, Vendors are also at the physical market on Wednesdays, from 3 to 6 pm and Saturdays from 8 am to 1 pm (or sellout) and believe me, they do sell out early. So come early to get the very best.

And some of our vendors have produce by the bushel, so if you are wanting to do some canning,please let that vendor know and if they can accommodate you they will be more than happy to.

Thank you, and Happy Eating !

Hey Local Food Lovers,

No messages this week, just thanks and appreciation to each of you for eating Local Foods and supporting Local Farmers. Best way to do that is to eat local every week, better yet every day! The only way you can do that is to support local markets, csa’s etc. and we do think that you’ll find Locally Grown is one of the best sources for a broad diversity of products from a wide diversity of farmers, and very convenient too. Just a few clicks and then only a few minutes to pick up on Wednesdays after work and voila! You can EAT WELL!

Many thanks,

Justin, Chuck, Teri and Andrew
