Foothills Market Has a Home!
(Sorry for the delay in opening the market – I got caught up in trying to get some garden work finished before the rain came in.)
Foothills Market has a home!
The University of the Ozarks is allowing Foothills to set up for delivery in their warehouse building behind the Domino’s Pizza parking lot (on McConnell Street). We’re excited about being able to have the market in a location out of the weather – no more worries about rain or wind or even hot sun wilting your delicate spring greens! To get to the pickup location, you can park in the large lot behind the Regions Bank drive-through area.
Shop the market for your fresh vegetables, meats, eggs and baked goods between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. Then meet us between 4:30-5:30 p.m. on Thursday at our new location. We hope you’ll like it as much as we do!
The Market is Open!
Happy Easter! We at Foothills Market hope you are having a good holiday despite the cold and wet weather.
We have a new grower on the market this week! Freeman Fresh is located in Hagarville and specializes in free-range eggs. Check out his listing along with the fresh produce, meats and baked goods on the market. Fill your cart with your choices between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., and be sure to click the “Place your order” button. We’ll have your order ready for pickup on Thursday afternoon.

The Market is Open!
One of the major items on Foothills Market this week is eggs. Whether you are looking for eggs to color or eggs to devil, our growers have both chicken and duck eggs.
What’s the difference, you ask? A duck egg is a little larger than a large chicken egg and has a larger, creamier yolk, perfect for deviled eggs. They also have sturdier shells, so they might stand up a little better to those egg hunts! Many of the eggs on our market are brown, but Sheepy Hollow also has eggs from a variety of different breeds, so the eggshells range from light, creamy brown to pastel green. Maybe you won’t even want to do dye colors!
We also have our regular fresh produce with early spring items such as lettuce and radishes for those Easter dinner salads.
Browse the market between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. We’ll be back on our regular pickup schedule this week, so your order will be ready on Thursday between 4:30-5:30 p.m. at the east side of the courthouse square.

Pickup Change This Weekend! The Market is Coming to U of O!
Foothills Market will be part of the University of the Ozarks Homecoming celebration this weekend! We’ve been invited to join the Ozarks Family Carnival and Farmers’ Market on Saturday, April 9.
For this one weekend only, we will have pickup for the market during the Ozarks event. Your orders will be available at the Hurie Soccer complex between noon-3 p.m.
Browse the market between now and Wednesday at 5 p.m. If you are unable to come to the Saturday event, please let us know and we’ll get your order to you on Thursday. But if you can join us on Saturday, come out and visit with Ozarks alumni and students while getting your order.
We hope to see you Saturday!

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