At the Market this week: The Big Lineup (June 15 edition)


My, how time flies. School is out (or will be in just a few short hours), the pool is open, and summer vacations are in the offing. After a by turns hot and stormy week, we''re looking at a beautiful Saturday to celebrate all the goodness of summer!

We have a lovely Saturday morning lined up for you -- celebrate Maryland Wine Week with us, pick up the best local provisions for those Father's Day feasts (visit us on Pinterest for terrific recipes and cooking tips), and stock up on wonderful food that will take you through a week of eating that you can feel really good about. Let's Keep It Local!

While you're at the Market, start thinking about the Buy Local Challenge (July 20-28), take a minute to vote for the Market in the American Farmland Trust contest, and find out more about our Annual Cheverly Community Market Potluck (August 10). Visit the big green Market tent for information on all of these events!

Have some extra fun this Saturday... Cheverly Exchange is running a trivia contest! This Friday afternoon at 2pm we will post another Cheverly Trivia question. Thanks to the generosity of Arvind and Crystal Lal of the Cheverly Breadbasket featuring Firehook Bakery & Moctec Mexican Foods the first person to answer it currently will win a loaf of bread andpastries of their choosing at this Saturday's market! In order to receive the questions quickly, you need to have your mail options set to get individual emails or watch the Yahoo Groups at 2pm. You can find that at www.CheverlyExchange.com. We ask that if you've won before you refrain from answering as to give other members a chance to win. We will post a Cheverly Trivia question on the Friday before each Market this summer and we have some great gifts from many of the vendors at the Community Market: Sausage from Waltz Family Farms, a pair of handmade earrings from Little Peeps Emporium, a dozen cookies from Good Morning Bakery just to name a few! Keep an eye out for the question around 2 pm this Friday!
Bring your friends, family, and neighbors to the Cheverly Community Center, 8am to noon, Saturday, for a relaxing morning celebrating the best in local food, wine, art, music, and more. We're looking forward to sharing our Saturday morning with you!
