Market News

Hello!

We know you all enjoyed the beautiful weather today as much as we did! We have lots of news today, so please take a minute to read before you hop on over to the market.

We have a great selection for you this week! There is a bounty of sweet, crunchy lettuces and spinach this week, some lovely root vegetables and radishes, and other mild, juicy greens freshly harvested from our farms just for you! Check out the recipe as a way to enjoy some of our veggies and mushrooms!

  • Pre-Order Bouquets are available! This is a special offer as a way for you to save some money on flowers this summer. It also helps support Tally’s early season farm needs, like buying seeds, and supplies. This is a low-income time for farmers, and some investment now in the upcoming season is really helpful! And, during these gray days, how wonderful to think of those vibrant, joyful flower bouquets you can order each week during the summer! Pre-pay now for the Bouquet of the Week Club bouquets, and save yourself $20.00! You get 10 weeks of large bouquets for 12.00 each (normally would be $14.00), and can order them whenever it is convenient for you!

We are on an every-other week schedule through March! Stock up this week on what you can . Our next delivery will be on Wednesday, March 16th.

We have two bits of egg news! For the next few weeks we will be offering on special some Certified Organic eggs from Eaton’s Creek Organic Farm in Joelton. They are a slightly higher price from the regular Fresh Harvest eggs. Our farmer friends at Eaton’s Creek have a new flock of heritage birds, and are still learning about how much they will produce and finding the right market for them. We will be helping them out here for a little bit – let us know what you think!

Also, we are implementing a new policy regarding egg cartons. All eggs will now be packed in new cartons each week.* We will no longer be accepting any other egg cartons than the ones you receive your eggs in from us*. This will better help us ensure and monitor quality . If you did not receive the carton from any eggs bought from us, please do not bring it to us to reuse or recycle. Thank you!

We also have Dylem and Calebs’ Farm eggs this week, if you enjoy supporting these farm kids in their income-generating home project!

A reminder that we can not be responsible for the fate of bags that are left for those that need to pick up after 6:00. We have had some issues lately with bags missing by the time the customer gets there. This is very distressing to us, and we are working with Trinity Church on this issue. In the meantime, please be aware that there is a chance, if you need to arrive after we leave, that you will not find your order there when you get there. Again, we are working on this and will keep you informed.

We so appreciate your support, and look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!

John and Tallahassee
