Every week that we get to say “The market is open!” is a great week! Shopping these amazing local foods and products is always fun and interesting. We hope you enjoyed meeting the Sorrentino family and sampling some of their tasty products! We appreciate their dedication to providing healthy snacks. I hope you tried their delicious salad dressing, too! This Tuesday we are looking forward to hosting Sweetbirds Candy Kitchen for a pop-up during market pick up! Another of our new vendors, this mom of four is creating some amazing-looking candied fruit! Make sure you come say hello to her and see her products in person! We want to welcome Lost Eden Farms and Weatherford Family Farm to the RCM family! Look for Lost Eden’s duck eggs in the egg category while we eagerly wait to see what his garden produces! Weatherford Family Farm has listed some tasty-looking baked goods plus we got a sneak peek of her pepper jelly on the extras table last Tuesday! Check out their new products and welcome them to the RCM family! We are very sad that this is the last week on our market for Cecelia and Otis. Her artisan sourdough and delicious cookies are top-quality! Show her some love this week and take advantage of your last chance to enjoy her products!

What’s for dinner this week? Shop our delicious beef, chicken or pork for your favorite cuts!

Slice up some Cecelia and Otis sourdough or toast a Pleasant View bagel or English muffin for breakfast or amazing snacks! Try our selection of chocolate chip cookies; there’s not a bad one in the bunch! Or sample new browned butter snickerdoodles from Sorrentino Family Farmstead. Their healthy snacks are delicious or you can try their new salad dressing! Check out the herbs and spices for fresh curry sprigs from Pine Ridge Gardens, lemon thyme from Le Jardin bien-aimee or spice blends from McAnulty Mercantile! Taste the difference with farm fresh eggs; we have plenty available and lots of choices in size and colors! Working in your garden? Find some spectacular starts in the live plants category! Pine Ridge Gardens has a container cucumber that is ready to produce, some tomato plants and unique plants like her tea camellia! Check out variegated Cuban oregano from Meadowlark Valley for a beautiful and tasty herb to add to your garden, too! We can’t wait to try the candied fruit from Sweetbirds Candy Kitchen; it sounds unique and decadent! This time of year there’s so many new things popping up on the market.
