Siloam Springs, AR: Online Market is Open!
www.siloamsprings.locallygrown.net
This week we welcome Mandi Johnson, creator of beautifully hand crocheted and knitted items and owner of Grace Full Stitches. She will customize the color for you and items can be ordered individually or in sets. These are a great addition to your kitchen or as gifts to give for birthdays or holidays!
Farmers work year round to provide food for your table. Tom of Opossum Hollow Produce is currently reworking a high tunnel. There’s a thousand pounds of composted cow goodness about to be added. R Family Farm is raising their last batch of broilers for the year. The close the broiler operation during the colder months and pick back up in the spring. That means you should stock up on your chicken because they usually run out by January.
This weeks recipe is for something that will keep you nice and warm. Beans and Greens are a simple, healthy meal and easy to prepare. This recipe from Food 52 calls for any beans, lentils, or chickpeas and you can use just about any green. Kale, chard, and bok choy can be found via our online market. You can make your own bone broth using R Family Farms chicken frames and if you have an Instant Pot you can make the broth in the morning in 2 hours time, strain it and let it cool and use then cook your beans and have them ready when it’s time to cook the soup. Hope you enjoy this recipe and see you Saturday!

Dothan, Alabama: FARMERS MARKET CANCELLED THIS SATURDAY
“The best laid plans of mice is men” is a quote adapted from a poem by the 18th century poet, Robert Burns. It is about a mouse which carefully builds a winter nest in a wheat field, only for it to be destroyed by a ploughman.
Mother Nature is our ploughman this week. First JD at Dothan Nurseries, then myself kept a watchful eye on Saturday’s forecast and today a decision was reached because
We didn’t figure you would want to come out in the wind and rain and sure don’t relish the idea of our awesome farmers and vendors sitting outside cold and lonely while their beautiful produce and goods get ruined because the weather is bad.
We’re sad to make this announcement but the upside is that both the Farmer’s Market and the Classes are moved to November 4, and followed by that we’ll have our last scheduled Farmer’s Market/Food Classes on November 11.
