Start the New Year with Local Eggs, Meats, Produce & More!
What We Have and What’s Expected for January 2nd-4th
Place Your Orders Here!
Even though there’s been some up and down temperature swings, freezes on the Northshore and storms, there’s still a plethora of local food to start the year, which is something many parts of the country can’t say in January!
Strawberries are here! Remember these are the early season pricing and they will come down significantly as the (long) season progresses.
Citrus is really hitting its peak and we’ll add blood oranges to the mix tomorrow and likely tangerines next week. More persimmons are coming in and more apples, too. Apples will be winding down over the course of the month.
In the veggie realm, we have lots of salad greens, escarole, radicchio, cabbages, collards, carrots, mushrooms, turnips, radishes, butternut squash and sweet potatoes and we’re expecting more broccolini tomorrow.
We also have plenty of eggs from the Little Brown Egg Farm and I’ll bring more from our hens tomorrow by midday or so.
Pork, beef and goat meat are stocked up and we’ll get more chicken breasts tomorrow, too. Seafood is limited but we should be restocking next week.
Plus there’s plenty of coffee and herbal teas and tinctures, jams and jellies, pickles and ferments, frozen pasta, dried beans, peas, rice, grits and other whole grains, plus stone-milled flours, pecan products, seasonings, hot sauces and lots more.
