Russellville Community Market
DeForest, WI: Market Preparing to Open
Welcome!
DeForest Locally Grown is gearing up for another season of providing fresh local veggies to surrounding communities. We plan to open for the season next week, with Sunday’s announcement (May 10) of the availability and Friday’s opening, May 15, for the first pick up from 4-6pm, at Forest Run Farm. The Market is currently displaying most of the items that were offered during last season to give you an idea of what you can expect from this market. Deforest Locally Grown is a net work of small farms that combine their products together in one market with a common pick up site. Most of the vegetables provided at this market are grown by Forest Run Farm. Sweet corn in season is provided by Ripp-N-Good Sweetcorn. Coffee is provided by Rusty Dog. And Meat is produced by Bauman’s Natural Meat. DeForest Locally Grown is looking for more growers or producers to provide to this market; if you know anyone that would be interested in selling meat, cheese or bread, please let them know about this opportunity or have them contact Farmer@ForestRunFarm.com.
This years pick up location will again be hosted by Forest Run Farm, 3757 Mueller Rd., DeForest. Due to the complexity of this market, we ask customers to be punctual and arrive before 6 o’clock. Ordering via this on-line market does require customers to set up a free account. With an account, you will receive weekly emails that announce the offerings of the week. Ordering begins Sunday and closes each Tues evening so that growers can pick and pack the orders by Friday. Customers can order as often as they wish depending on their needs. Farmers often have additional quantities of produce available at pick up for additional purchases or for walk-up customers.
Payment is to be made at pick up by cash, check, prepaid credit or Farmers Market Nutrition Program vouchers (for Forest Run Farm produce only). Forest Run Farm offers a Farm Stand CSA which provides you with credit to use to purchase Forest Run Farm items from the on-line market. We are again offering a pick up site for CSA-members-only at the Hilldale Farmer’s Market. If you are signed up for the Farm Stand CSA, watch your mailbox, as we are sending out your punch cards this week. Remember that you must bring these to market as your payment!
If you wish to be removed from this mailing, please go to your account and change your profile to not receive mail or respond to this mail with REMOVE in the subject line.

Fisher's Produce Tulsa: Harvest Update
Hello Friends,
Sorry for the late posting. My wife and I were out of town for a farmer friend’s wedding until this afternoon and then I went straight to the asparagus field. We will leave our orders open until noon tomorrow, but the sooner you get them in, the better.
We are picking strawberries! We plan to include them in this week’s CSA. I have posted a few extra to sell, but I really don’t know how many we will have until we pick tomorrow. Yesterday’s picking went to all of the extended family and to the strawberry shortcake party we are having this evening for Hudson’s first birthday.
This week’s CSA will likely include:
Strawberries
Asparagus
Spinach
Lettuce (Head or mix, I don’t know)
Salad Turnips
We are delivering to Brookside, Congregation B’nai Emunah, Spirit Event Center, and Okmulgee.
See you on Wednesday,
Luke
