The Market is Open - November 13


Good morning! The Foothills Market is open for this week.

Looking for a break from the traditional turkey dinner for Thanksgiving next week? How about a leg of lamb or a local ham? Sheepy Hollow Farm has a variety of locally-grown and processed meat available on the market, and Kim said she has an awesome leg of lamb recipe she’ll post in the Recipes section of the site.

We also have fresh, local vegetables for sides. Happy Horseshoe Farm has fresh broccoli, as well as rutabagas, which make a great puree that is a lower-carb replacement for mashed potatoes. The market also offers a variety of jams, jellies, and baked goods, including a couple of small goodies made from heirloom pumpkins to satisfy your sweet tooth while still offering some nutritional benefits.

Browse our offerings on the Market page between now and noon on Thursday. To place your order, simply add any items you would like to your cart, then click the “Place my order” button. You can then pick up your order between 4-6 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 17.

Note that the market will take a break next week for Thanksgiving.

We’re looking for both new customers and new growers interested in keeping local access to fresh produce available now that the in-person farmers’ market has closed for the season. We’d appreciate your telling your friends and neighbors about Foothills Market. Word of mouth – or word of mouse! – is the best way to spread the word.

Happy shopping! Eat something fresh this week!
