The Market is Open!


As all our growers on Foothills Market have found, sometimes the plans you make for your garden just don’t work out. That happened this year for Happy Horseshoe Farm and our sweet potato crop. We had two rows with beautiful, lush vines, and we were excited to see the potatoes beneath. But when we dug the potatoes a week or so ago, we found that a big percentage of the potatoes had split and are not suitable for selling. What a disappointment!

But to paraphrase the saying, “When life gives you split sweet potatoes, make sweet potato breads!” This week, we are offering a selection of items on the market that feature sweet potatoes, ranging from a rich sweet potato-cinnamon bread to decadent sweet potato mini-muffins to light sweet potato biscuits.

Browse the market between now and 5:00 p.m. Wednesday. Place your order, and we’ll have it ready for pickup on Thursday afternoon.

Eat something fresh this week!
