The Market is Open - February 5
Our feature this week on Foothills Market is our selection of meats. We have a wide variety of cuts of beef, lamb, and pork, ranging from bratwurst to leg of lamb to t-bone steaks and more.
When you buy meat from Foothills Market, you know the animals did not spend any time in a factory-style feedlot. These animals were on the farm until taken for processing. Most of the meat was prepared at Advanced Meat Processing in Van Buren, which focuses on humane treatment of animals. AMP also has a USDA inspector on site, so you know your meats are up to the same standards (or better) at larger facilities.
We also have limited quantities of fresh vegetables, including some baby collards and kale from the Food for Thought Garden and some celery stalks grown in the new aquaponics house at Happy Horseshoe Farm.
Shop the market, place items in your cart, and hit the “Place your order” button. We’ll gather your items and have them ready for pickup Friday afternoon between 4-6 at the Food for Thought Garden house, 815 N. Hillcrest.
Eat something fresh this week!
