Farmers Market

Good Times Roll
Don't miss this Saturday's Market. ᅠThe flat-pickin', country fiddlin' and toe-tappin' Sugar Run Band is coming to town. ᅠA highlight of this year's Music at the Market, the multi-talented vocal group will flat-foot your socks off! ᅠThanks to a grant from Pocahontas County Dramas, Fairs and Festivals, the music starts around 10 am.
The summer Market is in full swing. ᅠVendors are harvesting cucumbers, tomatoes, green beans and cabbage by the bushel. ᅠFor folks who freeze, can or pickle, now is the time to talk with a farmer and arrange to get the quantity of fresh produce you need.
Vendors also have the first of the potato crop, and the sweet corn is almost ripe. ᅠLois (Dunmore) makes handsewn cooking bags which are a quick and easy way to microwave potatoes or corn. ᅠYou can cook dinner in a few minutes without heating up your kitchen. ᅠOne of the vendors alwaysᅠstocks Lois' pouches.
Long-time friends of the Market have asked about locally grown meat. ᅠThisᅠyear Steve has been selling pork chops and delicious sausage. ᅠLast week ᅠthe Market added beef and lamb from Stompin' Crick Farm. ᅠJoe, Sarah andᅠfamily of Stompin' Creek graze their stock on unspoiled mountain pasturesᅠand their USDA-inspected meat isn't laced with artificial chemicals.
In addition to ground beef, steak and special cuts, Stompin' Crick makesᅠlamb and beef stew. ᅠIf you want to restock your freezer, Stompin' Crick ᅠcan fill your order the next time they process stock. ᅠFor such fineᅠquality meats, you can't beat the prices set by either vendor.
Come on down and see how we grow!
