CLG: Opening Bell: Peaches, Apples, Peppers, Cukes!
Good afternoon,
Shiitake Mushrooms! We anticipate having those wonderful Shiitake Mushrooms from Sweden Creek Farms on the Extras table again this Friday. They will be listed for ordering once we get the logistics worked out consistently. 8 ounces for only $5.25. Come early to be sure to get some!
Honey! If all goes well, we will have a new honey producer this week. He maintains over 200 hives in central Arkansas. Pure, strained honey: $8 a pint.
COFFEE! Stock up on your favorite fresh-roasted coffee from RoZark Hills Coffee Roasterie.
Lots of delicious APPLES and PEACHES are listed, in small and bulk quantities. Great for school lunches!
Come early on Friday for the best selection from the EXTRAS table.
The market is now OPEN for orders. Please check your email about 5 minutes after you place your order to make sure you get an order confirmation. Thank you for being a valuable part of CLG!
Have a great week!

Siloam Springs, AR: Online Market is Open!
www.siloamsprings.locallygrown.net
We are only a couple of weeks away from our first Farm to Table dinner! It’s going to be an amazing event and I can’t wait to share a meal with our farmers and market customers. If you would like more information about the dinner, check out the Facebook event page – https://www.facebook.com/events/1476428759319521/
Hope you’ve checked out M & D Specialty Growers plants, shrubs and trees online. All of the items they grow are hardy for this area and healthy. Ms. Dorothy let me know that coming soon they will be offeriing LYCORIS (Spider Lilies) mixed colors(red, gold, white), in 1 gal pots.
Opossum Hollow Produce will begin coming on Saturdays only. Make sure to reserve your eggs by ordering through the online market.
R Family Farm is now offering ground buffalo! They are not raising it but they have a good relationship with the farmer who is (he was their orthodontist) and they are pleased to be selling his product. It’s a great addition to our market. I’m not sure it will be available yet online since this is a new product so be sure to visit them at the outdoor market if you are interested in purchasing some.
Skopp Bakery has a great variety of jams and jellies using locally grown fruits. Her peach jams were made from peaches on a tree in her yard! It is so good.
The Bread Basket offers a variety of loaf breads and I can attest to the ciabatta bread – it is great for sandwiches.
Perennial Gardens has beautiful, healthy plants and flowers available as well as some succulents. Stop by her table and check things out.
All of our farmers are working hard to keep the produce coming. This week we have started seeing sweet potatoes.
Remember, ordering online ensures the items you want are available and you can pick them up Saturday morning between 9 and noon and shop the produce while you’re here.
Have a great week!

Farm to Table Recipes
A Tomato Sandwich Worthy of a Little Bacon
Ingredients
3 slices bacon, cooked crisp, crumbled and rendered fat reserved
1 room temperature egg
1 clove garlic
1 avocado
Juice of half a lemon
3/4 cup vegetable oil
The Bacon-Avocado Aioli
Toasted slices of a good rustic Italian bread
The best tomatoes you can find, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
Salt and pepper
Notes / Directions
1. Process the bacon, egg, garlic, lemon juice and avocado in the bowl of a mini food processor until smooth. Add the vegetable oil and the rendered bacon fat through the holes on the lid slowly while continuing to process until very smooth and thick. Refrigerate for about an hour to thicken a bit more.
2. Slather as much of the aioli as you like on a slice of the toast. Top with a few slices of tomato and sprinkle with salt and pepper. I like these open face but if you like, slather a second piece of bread with more of the aioli and place on top.

United States Virgin Islands: This Week in VI Locally Grown
Good Morning,
The market is open for orders and we have some new items this week! We just listed mustard greens, komatsuna, and tokyo bekana which are great greens for salads or cooking. Mustard greens have a bit of a spice, but it diminishes when you cook it :).
Cheers!
