Market Watch

We’re lucky in East Central Illinois, to have a variety of CSAs from which to choose. Sarah profiles one of the oldest local growers in town, Brackett Farms, to learn more about what its all about.

Written as a companion piece to last week’s SPodcast, Sarah dives into the “other” Market across town, and further reminds us of its value to the community.

Making a trip to the Market is more fun with friends… especially if you need encouragement in how to best overcome fear of the unknown.

Now that we’re a little deeper into the season, Sarah tells us exactly what it is about the Market that makes it an enriching experience, and tricks her husband with a cookie to come along for the ride.

As Sarah gets comfy in her role as the new Market Watcher, she dives in to the most delicious and traditional of all early Spring hauls: behold the Asparagus.

Our newest scribe, Sarahe Lubelski offers up a rundown on how our cherished Market at the Square came to pass. Are peaches available yet? No? Guh…

Boo! It’s Market at the Scare tomorrow — and yes, root veggies abound.

Bundle up, Market Watchers — it’s going to be rainy and chilly tomorrow. But if that stops you from eating fresh, we’re not sure how to help?

Oh, it’s autumn all right. But this Saturday’s market will sure feel like summer!
