Aritsans Gallery & Cafe: In addition to our "Artisans" house coffee, we will be brining a blend from One Village which celebrates the Fall season. "Harvest Blend" is a complex blend of Indonesian, Central American and Indian coffees, roasted to a light Vienna (medium dark).

North Star Orchard: It's Halloweeny Time! Time for all of our favorites: candy, pumpkins, colorful leaves, homemade soup, and of course....Gold Rush apples!
We'll continue to have a great selection of awesome apples and Asian pears (Hosui, Yoinashi, Olympic) at the market. Come out and try: Stellar, the few remaining Golden Russet, Reinette Simerenko, Winecrisp, Enterprise and more! (as well as the first taste of Gold Rush for the year, of course!)
Did someone say Gold Rush??
It's time for you to stake your claim in this year's Gold Rush Rush! Gold Rush are the last apples of the year, and are fantastic keepers. They are sugary-tart, and get sweeter as they're stored in the 'fridge. They are fantastic for fresh eating, and make prize-winning pies and delicious applesauce. We also use them to make a wicked-good varietal cider, which some claim is "nectar of the gods". Gold Rush apples will be available for purchase by the pound at the farmers' market. Pre-ordering a big bag of them for pick up in November will save you a few dollars and help stave off your need to resort to grocery store apples.
20 lb. bags of Gold Rush apples will be available for pickup over the middle two weeks of November, and Gold Rush varietal cider will be available ONE WEEK ONLY (November 7th-13th). You must pre-order both of these items.
For more info about Gold Rush, and to order, look at our Gold Rush Rush webpage. Check out our Gold Rush apple recipe in the recipe section. Shellbark Hollow Farm: This week Shellbark Hollow Farm with have their autumn inspired chevre spreads. Harvest Moon- a mild pumpkin flavor with a touch of fall spices and Spectachio- cranberries with roasted pistachio nut- both whipped and creamy. Great for anytime of day. Stop by and try them. |
