Grapefruit & Radicchio Are Here! Plus Tomatoes & Last Hurrah of Summer Veggies, Honey, Hummus, Meats, Seafood & More!
What We Have and What’s Expected for the Week of November 18th
Place Your Orders Here!
For our fans of bitter things, grapefruit and radicchio arrived for the first time this season!
But we also still have plenty of other absolutely beautiful and delicious local produce like tons of cherry tomatoes (and more heirloom slicers coming, too, BLTs are on repeat at my house because of them), plus plenty of apples and satsumas, herbs, roselle hibiscus, other salad and leafy greens, carrots, eggplant, peppers, cabbages, squashes, sweet potatoes and more.
With the cold front coming, we can expect tomatoes, eggplant, cucumbers, peppers and okra to finally be winding down after a banner fall crop!
We’re out of eggs to start the week, but will bring plenty more tomorrow morning to stock up for the week.
There's also plenty of goat milk and cheeses and a sale on a few whole milk, heavy cream and half & half from last week, plus more coming on Tuesday as usual.
We did another meat restock on Thursday, so ground pork, Italian sausages and bratwurst are back, along with beef bones, but unfortunately plain ground beef is out until we get our latest beef back from the processor (brought in this morning).
Homestead Harvest restocked honey last week, so now we have plenty of both honey in glass jars from Cockeyed Farms and Homestead’s in squeeze bottles, too.
We also have plenty of hummus and pesto restocked last week and Bellegarde crostini to dip in it. Plus Bellegarde will be sending more of their focaccia on Wednesday along with baguettes, ciabatta, country loaves and more.
