People have driven as far as the Shenandoah's to his operation in Southern Maryland to buy a couple dozen oysters! We are only one of two markets he attends. Be sure to include Oysters in your menus this week. Here's a link with great recipes. You can't beat his prices. Clan Stewart Farm: Try their summer sausage or bacon to fix a stellar sandwich. Or try ribs, steaks or hamburger and have a memorable cookout. Cherry Glenn Goat Cheese: A market favorite that stands alone with quality bread or use it in salads, pizzas, and more. Pick one or two of these recipes to try this week. Pair your oysters and goat cheese with a Pinot Gris from Elk Run, a new wine they are introducing.
