Hello Market Shoppers!
It will be a chilly, but beautiful day for tomorrow's market which is perfect for our FREE animal show about Critter Coats at 9:15 presented by The Elmwood Park Zoo.  Bundle up your little ones or yourself and come on down to see it!

We are very pleased to partner with the Phoenixville Green Team for their 5th annual Green Earth Festival which will adjoin the market.  This year's focus is on "Building a Healthy Community" in an effort to keep our local community vibrant, healthy and sustainable.  It's a celebration to promote natural, sustainable, earth-friendly and community enterprises that will feature, presentations, demonstrations and children's activities. Exhibitors specialize in variety of eco-friendly products and community services that make up our local economy.  You'll find information about solar energy, hybrid bicycles, electric cars and much more.  Be sure to check it our while you are at the market!!  Click here for more information.

This is the week when we focus on health Phoenixville Hospital will be doing free blood pressure screenings.  Stop by to get yours tested!

We know that parking can get tight in the municipal lot nearest the market and want you to know that there is free parking in the Borough Hall lot at 351 Bridge Street on the side furthest from the market.  It is  very pleasant to walk the short section along the trail to the market from the lot!

 
See you at the Market!

Make Your Own Veal Broth - we will bring a small amount of veal bones to the market this week!
Bone Broth's are "An Old-Fashioned Remedy for the Modern World" as Sally Fallon Morell expounds upon definitively in her book Nourishing Broth! Her descriptions of bone broths healing powers and recipes make for an interesting read and a convincing discussion of why bone broths should be a part of our lives.
For a quick start Michael Ruhlman has an excellent and easy veal broth recipe at this link:
