More Berries and Hot Food plus BIG Market!
Yup, it’s ALL about Strawberries at this time of year. Grab ’em while you can, the season can be short!
We are starting June off with a bang! Eight farms this week, including Albeke and Leone’s Farms (back in for the summer now and bringing more berries, Shuksan, Albions, Seascape ), plus gooseberries, summer squash, and a few cucumbers are starting to show up too. Sun Love farms will have summer squash, carrots, beets, cabbages, and more. Apart from more farms and berries, we have back this week: CleanSlate Suds, NW Ferments, Market Pasta, Pet Wants, Mic’s Mix (GF baking mixes), Portland Cider Co., Trail Distilling plus Shy Ann Meats with bacon, sausages and smoked pork chops!
Gorgeous Peonies are in the market bouquets now.
Hot food vendors include Sara’s Tamales (try their tachos too, delicious), High Five Cup Bop (Korean rice bowls) and new this week, Bama’s Southern BBQ! Also, apart from their amazing naturally-leavened bread and to-die-for cookies and pastries, OC’s Grano Bakery brings savory items to take home or eat on site. Try their savory pepperoni and cheddar scones, green chili, white cheddar and potato Manita and their pimento cheese Bialy. Hummus Stop has pita, chips and a wide variety of hummus and salads. Come for brunch!
Don’t forget you can download our App and pre-shop and pre-order! Not every vendor is on it …yet, and if you want to see your fave vendor on there…tell them!
POP (Power Of Produce) Kids Club gives $2 to children (ages 5-12) every market day to purchase fresh produce and plants to grow their own food. This week they get to plant beans, and take them home. A lesson in growing their own! Thanks to Clackamas Soil and Water Conservation District, On Point Community Credit Union and Bob’s Red Mill for supporting this ground-breaking farmers market kids club! It’s free to join too:)
Christina, will be taking over the Market Kitchen this weekend and cooking up her pastured pork!
Chef Christina (you know her as pig and now duck-wrangler at Campfire Farms) will take over the Market Kitchen this week and cook her delicious ground pork with veggies, eggs, rice and seasonings. Watch her cook, get a taste, a recipe sheet and hear how well they take care of their animals……care that translates into great tasting meat!
Feast for the eyes and table …always, from Brown Bottle Farm.
Booligh Jam play the Market this week, with their free-range, cage-free blues, folk, rock with a smidge of Irish! Purchase a market insulated shopping bag, pick a cloth produce bag of the washing line (they are made for us by volunteers to help reduce plastic, $1 suggested donation) , stop for lunch and enjoy the market…it’s going to feel like summer, yay!
