Fresh herbs make all the difference in cooking. We have Italian basil, Thai basil, parsley, sage, chives, lovage, and a mixed bunch that includes basil, oregano, rosemary, sage, parsley, and fennel. If you don’t use them all fresh by the end of the week, turn the bunch upside down and hang to dry, then use at your leisure.

Plentygood Farm has a couple of boxes of apples left, but they won’t last long.

We also have pet food made from ground chicken backs—what a treat for your favorite house pet.

Direct from the grower in California. These olives are organic and brine cured, and the olive oil is from cold-pressed, organic olives. You won’t believe how amazing it is!

Prepared Foods—
We have delicious chocolate chip cookies made to order for you, with either a combination of oat and wheat flour, or all oat flour. You will also love our lacto-fermented sauerkraut and jalapeno slices—excellent for gut health. We also have salsa made from local ingredients grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

Vegetables and meats for the grill, herbs for perfect seasonings, eggs for deviled eggs or desserts, and ready-made accompaniments. Here are the details:

NEW this week—Beyond Organics has the first zucchini of the year. You know all the jokes about having too much of it, but remember that everything at Green Fork Farmers Market is grown without chemical pesticides, and the squash might not last long due to pest pressures this summer. So, get your fill while you can.

Figgieville has a new shipment of organically grown olives directly from the grower in California. All of your favorite varieties are available this week: Kalamatas, green and purple Sevillanos, and Lucques. They also have a sampler pack available so you can try them all. Don’t forget to try this year’s Kalamata olive oil too. It’s amazing!

Also available this week—potatoes, fresh and dried Shiitake mushrooms and mushroom powder, onions, green onions, garlic, kale, lots of fresh herbs, chicken eggs, duck eggs, lamb, pork, beef, chicken, duck, stock/soup bones, botanical bath and beauty products, lacto-fermented sauerkraut, salsa, pet food, dog bones, several varieties of baby chicks for sale, and baby chicks for rent.

We will bring additional items to sell at our tables at the market as they become available each week, so make sure you take a quick look when you pick up to see if you want to add anything to your order. For example, last week we had green beans and cured garlic for sale at the market that weren’t listed for pre-order online. If you aren’t able to place an order, you can always stop by to shop at our farmers’ tables as well.

We look forward to helping you get ready for your gatherings with friends and family this week. Go ahead and place your order, and we’ll see you on Wednesday!

Dear Green Fork Farmers Market Customers,

It’s a great time for outdoor fun in the shade, enjoying your favorite local food grown naturally or handmade for you by our local farmers and artisans! Look and see what we have this week and place an order to reserve your products so you know you will have what you need when it’s time to fire up the grill.

NEW this week—Beyond Organics has fresh garlic, not cured, ready to add to all your summer dishes. Green Fork Farm has collard greens, as well as Thai Basil, which is the best basil for cooking Thai and Indian food because it is more stable under higher heat and longer cooking than sweet basil. And the flavor is amazing! Also available this week is a mixed herb bunch from Green Fork Farm. It has a little bit of a lot of different herbs, so you can custom mix them for each of your special dishes all week long. If you have any leftovers, you can use them to infuse water for a refreshing summer drink.

We have a great selection of pastured meats perfect for the grill, including whole chickens and chicken breasts, tenders, thighs, and drumsticks, premium ground beef and pork, pork sausages such as bratwurst, Italian sausage, chorizo, and breakfast sausage, delicious pork chops, roasts, and steaks, and lots of lamb choices—ground lamb, lamb chops, leg of lamb, roasts, shanks, kebabs, and ribs. In addition, we have nutritious organ meats and also soup bones and other items that make excellent stock for cooking.

Vegetables are also delicious on the grill! Try new Yukon Gold potatoes, red potatoes, Shiitake mushrooms, and onions. We also have green onions, kale, and collards available this week.

Fresh herbs make every dish more flavorful, and we have a large selection to choose from: basil, fennel leaf, mint, parsley, chives, sage, thyme, oregano, and lovage. Adams’ Acres on Clear Creek also has dried Shiitake mushrooms and mushroom powder to add a special touch to your meal.

Our local artisans are busy crafting handmade accompaniments for your meals and are offering salsa, lacto-fermented sauerkraut, and olives and olive oil directly from the grower in California. And don’t forget Blue Fox Farm’s chocolate chip cookies for a special treat. Yum!

Dandelion Peace Flower Botanicals has a full line of natural bath and beauty products to choose from. Bar soap, liquid soap, lip balm, moisturizer, cold cream, mouthwash, sugar scrub, and muscle salve are all necessary components of summer life, and make great gifts too!

Remember your pets this summer; try our all-natural pet food and dog bones.

Go ahead and place your order from now until Tuesday at noon for pickup at the market on Wednesday 4-7 pm. We’ll also have products available for sale on our tables, so make sure you check to see if there’s anything new at the market.
