Be sure to visit The Market this Saturday, and enjoy the food, crafts and music. We have exciting new offerings this week – stop by the kitchen for some fresh seafood chowder or sausage-bean soup with cornbread and desserts (regular and gluten-free)! For a refreshing treat, try an artisan soda homemade by The Daily Ration – made with small batch simple syrups with seasonal ingredients (such as Rhubarb Mint and a Blueberry Ginger Ale). Also offering dark chocolate walnut cookies with sea salt. Yum!

Farragut Farm and the community Sprout program will be offering fresh, locally grown produce and pecan butter. Check out Wild Fern Medicinals for natural Deet-free bug repellent and other locally made goodies for your skin. Then pick up a homemade doggie treat for your best friend.

Our volunteer Board is working hard to bring a quality Market experience to Petersburg – thanks for your support! See you there, at the ANB/ANS Hall from 10-1.

It’s Market Day tomorrow! Come join us at ANB/ANS Hall from 10-1. Last week vendors were in short supply due to the holiday- this week will be bigger and better! We’ve added new vendors, so don’t miss out. We will have live music, food, produce, homemade breads and sweets, artisan cupcakes, handcrafted jewelry and sewn items, and more local products. Sign up for a Rainforest Festival field trip, and learn about upcoming festival events. New this week from Farragut Farms: zucchini and zucchini blossoms, green onions, roasting turnips and garlic scapes. Artisan Cupcake Plans is also introducing the “Baking a Contrastence” campaign- a percentage of proceeds from her table at the Market will go towards non-profit organizations around the world. See you at the Market!
