The Market is Open!
Greetings Local Farms First Food Lovers,
We have a returning grower join the market this week: Zephyros Farm and Garden in Paonia. They have some beautiful flower bouquets available, as well as handmade wreaths that are made to order. Check out their offerings for something to brighten up the grey fall days we’ve been having.
As November starts to sneak up on us, keep in mind that LFF will NOT deliver the week of Thanksgiving, but we will have weekly deliveries until then. Plan ahead and keep the market in mind when planning your Thanksgiving menu.
Enjoy!

Tips on Preserving the Harvest!
Greetings Local Farms First Food Lovers,
Now is the season for preserving the bounty on the Local Farms First market. There are several varieties of kale on the market – try these tips for preserving kale to enjoy it all winter long. I like to blanch and freeze kale so I can avoid grocery store kale as long as possible!
Remember to place your order before 7am on Monday morning.

The Market is Open for Business!
Greetings Local Farms First Food Lovers,
We have a new product on the market this week grown by Rain Crow Farm: celeriac, an little-known, and under-appreciated vegetable! It may look funny, but celeriac is a delicious variety of celery cultivated for its root and a popular storage crop.
A tasty way to prepare celeriac is by grating it with other veggies to include in a coleslaw. Pick up a celeriac on the market and try this recipe for a simple celeriac red cabbage slaw.
Enjoy!

Also – some of our farmers are asking to reuse the plastic bags they pack your orders in every week. If you have some piling up in your house, bring them to the pick-up location so our farmers can reduce the amount of plastic they use. Thanks!

Greetings Local Farms First Food Lovers,
There’s nothing like some 45 degree rain to get you in the mood for a warm bowl of soup. I certainly found myself craving some this rainy, snowy week. Take a look at the many varieties of carrots on the market and try some carrot ginger soup..
Our growers offer some beautiful, multi-color varieties of carrots that will make a delicious addition to carrot ginger soup, or anything else!
