 Local Fresh Greens in Winter? YES!Wild Carrot Farm will be at market this Saturday and they tell us they have lots of arugula. If you're looking for other fresh greens (YES - in January!) Earth's Palate Farm has living lettuce heads and Stella Rose Farm has microgreens. All grown within 10 miles of the Community Center. See below for what else is happening this week. Market Notes
Anna Gill's column is titled Cozying Down - the perfect thing to do in the January cold after all the hustle and bustle of the holidays. Read her column as you're nestled in a comfy chair and imagine all the heart and tummy warming recipes that would suit the season and your mood. See you at the market Saturday, INDOORS at the Community Center. Sustainable Tip of the WeekThe cookbook exchange started in January, eight years ago, when we used the down time that month to cull through bookshelves full of cookbooks and decided which ones to keep. We offered the others at the market. This program has continued since then with the support of all of you doing the same. For those of you who haven't downsized your collection yet, this might be a good time. Featured Guests
