Is everyone liking the cooler temperatures? We are at Foothills Market, even if it's only a few degrees lower! It certainly makes a difference when working on the farm.

The rain last week was a blessing, and maybe it will revive some of the plants still living in the garden. At this point, it's mainly the really tough plants, like okra, that are still going. We have plenty of okra on the market, as well as some other tenacious types of vegetables. And of course, we still have our offerings of beef, lamb and pork, along with some baked goods and a few eggs. Shop the market between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., and we'll have your order put together for pickup on Thursday.

Foothills Market will be open until 5:00 this afternoon for your orders for fresh, local food. Place your order today, and we'll have it ready for pickup tomorrow!

As of the opening time for Foothills Market, we haven't gotten a lot of rain, but even just cloudy skies and cooler temperatures feel like relief! The forecast is calling for more rain at the end of the week, which maybe will revitalize some of the exhausted vegetables in our gardens.

Check out the offerings on the market between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. Place an order for the items you want, and we'll have them ready for pickup on Thursday afternoon.

Don't forget! You can still place an order on Foothills Market until 5:00 p.m. We'll have it ready for pickup tomorrow afternoon.

Everyone cross your fingers (toes, too!) that the weather forecast is right and we might get some cooler temperatures this week! As you can imagine, the extreme heat and dry weather have been very hard on Foothills Market. Our offerings of fresh produce are limited, and depending on what happens during the week, vegetables offered on Sunday may be unsuitable for you by Thursday. If we have to cancel an order, know it is usually because an item we thought would be available isn't or because we want to be sure we are giving you good quality in your order.

Vegetables may be limited, but we still have other items on the market to add to your menu, including baked goods and candy, condiments, sweet spreads, and pet treats. We also have cuts of pork, beef and lamb from locally-grown animals! Browse the market between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., and place an order. We'll have it all ready for pickup on Thursday afternoon.

Foothills Market is still open for the week until 5:00 p.m. today, so get your order in now for pickup tomorrow afternoon!

At Foothills Market, we're committed to bringing you fresh, locally-grown or locally-made foods, and that means we follow a more seasonal calendar than the big box stores. Some food may not be available all year round, and when it is available, the season may be short. That's the case with this week's offerings - we have a limited number of cantaloupes and watermelons grown here in Johnson County available this week! If you're like me, you look forward to the taste of vine-ripened melons all year and try to savor the flavor during their short season before they are gone again.

You may also have been hearing some horror stories about beef imports - rest assured, all the meat offered on the market comes from local farms where we know what is going in their mouths and can watch them for any signs of disease. Our meats are all prepared at local businesses that have either USDA or state meat inspectors, so we feel confident you are getting a healthy, safe product.
