Summer Fruits, Artists, Food Trucks at the Market!


Second Saturday
!
  July 11, 2015
9am to 1pm
Hello Market Shoppers!

It's Second Saturday this week and that means local artists will be at the market this week!  It's Blobfest in Phoenixville and some of our vendors have made some Blob specials.  Be sure to bring your appetite tomorrow, because all three food trucks will be serving the best farm to food truck dishes! 

 

Summer fruits are really coming in!  Quarryville Orchard will join us this week with their peaches and plums!  We look forward to seeing Aaron Esch, orchard owner.  He was one of our original farmers when the market started back in 2002!

 

Maple syrup is a perfect accompaniment to summer peaches and this is the week that Ridge Valley Farm will be at market with the sweet elixir made in neighboring Montgomery County.  Be sure to grab some!   

 

 Christine & Company will perform there upbeat music on stage from 10am to 1pm.  Be sure to grab a seat and listen! 

 

Parking may be a little tight tomorrow.  The Borough lot will be closed.  There is a municipal lot at the corner of Taylor Alley and Main Street in addition to the one by the market.  There is a large free lot behind Customers Bank, yes, it is a little walk to the market, but it will be a beautiful day, and it's a great way to add to your daily steps!

Finally, mark your calendars for next Saturday, when Andrew Deery, owner/chef at Majolica, will give a cooking demo at 9am, July 18th.  Last year he gave a fantastic demo- the food was absolutely gorgeous and delicious!  We will be raffling off a $50 gift certificate from Majolica.  To enter the raffle, sign up for the demo here.  You must be present at the demo to win, but of course you won't want to miss it!

See you at the Market!

Artisan's Cafe
This year's summer seasonal blend features a pair of coffees, Guatemala El Naranjo Estate and Rwanda Dukunde Kawa. It's a refreshing cup with a brisk blood orange acidity and lots of raw sugar sweetness. The aftertaste has a delicious nutty quality reminiscent of cashew.  Summer Classic is great for cold brew, making a sweet juicy cup! It's also a good option for drip or a bright shot of espresso..

Birchrun Hills Farm
I am feeling the lazy hot days of summer - can we please lay in the hammock with a nice breeze and the grill going forever!
This week the smoked blue is back! This has become our get it when you can cheese as we produce just a small amount at, honestly, seemingly random times as artisanal cheese makers can be known to do!
If it does not get all munched up on opening then it is awesome on the veal burgers just before they are pulled off the grill [to get a little melting going] or mix some smoked blue in with butter to top off a grilled veal chop - very fancy but easy!

Bridge Street Chocolates

Deep Roots Valley Farm

We are still running a surplus on our delicious pasture raised eggs.  Be sure to stop by and get some no matter how late you sleep in!  It's great weather to make egg salad!
