Who's Coming to Market This Week?

We're gearing up for another great Market this Saturday! Our vendors are bringing all sorts of good stuff for your early summer meals and snacking. We want you to come over to the Community Center between 8:00am and noon to stock up on the best local offerings and hang out with family, friends and friends-to-be while you enjoy pastries, coffee and great music courtesy of our very own house band. So who's coming? Here's the list so far...and we may have one or two surprises up our sleeves. You never know! * Reberts. The Rebert family will bring strawberries, rhubarb, spring onions, yellow squash, zucchini, cucumbers, and new red potatoes. This will probably be the last rhubarb, so stock up now! LATE UPDATE: They'll have SUGAR PEAS, too! * Schlagel Farms * Swann Farms. They're hoping to have strawberries, squash and zucchini... It will definitely be the last week for strawberries, and it is weather permitting! Let's hope those delectable berries survived all the storms! * Circle C * Clan Stewart. Linda & Terry Moist will have pork link breakfast sausage, mild Italian sausage, chorizo, kielbasa, bacon, cottage bacon, pocket pork chops, and ham slices, as well as ground beef, stew cubes, hot dogs, summer sausage, chuck roast, eye of round roast, briskets, London broil, short ribs, liver, and beef heart. * Martha's Jams * Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea. Charles will be playing and singing for you, but Erik will bring the heralded 2nd series (featuring two prize-fighting loose black teas from China and India) and a very limited stock of Series 1 (Nepal black, Dragonwell green, and Ceylon black). Series 1 sold out a few months ago, so we're very lucky that they found a few tins for us. * Cheverly Breadbasket * Cookies to Cocktails. Liz is bringing assorted cupcakes (red velvet, chocolate, vanilla), chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter icing (new this week!), jam thumbprints made with Martha's Jam, sugar cookies, snickerdoodles, coconut macaroons, chocolate chunk cookies (new this week!), and of course, the ever popular cake pops! Really, how can you go wrong with cake (or anything) on a stick? * Methodist Church Fair Trade Coffee & Gifts * Simple Pleasures Ice Cream * Our very first Plant Clinic, courtesy of the Master Gardeners at Cheverly Garden Club. Bring your plants, bring your questions. The Master Gardeners want to help you have the loveliest, healthiest plants you can grow. Of course, we'll be whrrling the Market, and you can find pictures from this -- and all our Markets -- on our flickr page.
See you this Saturday at the Market!
