Weekly farmers market

If you have followed any of our website updates or our Facebook status's, you should know we are at the Salem Farmers Market (www.salemnhfarmersmarket.com) every Sunday until October. I have frequented farmers markets in the past but this is the first market I have ever worked. Let me tell you, it's hard work! 

I'm sure you're thinking, how hard can it be, sitting outside, breathing in fresh air? Well a few hours worth of work actually takes awhile to prepare for. We bake everything fresh for the market the day before and we have to transport everything we make to the market along with everything else we need, like chairs, tables, tents, etc. Then setting everything up and taking it down in the summer weather takes its toll. 

Luckily, there are tons of great vendors and farms at the market where you can not only pick up your fresh fruits and vegetables but also get your lunch from the Blue Ox Food Box or cool off with some ice cold New Hampshire made soda. 

When you visit our table you can sample some of our great products. This past week our samples included lemon cake with raspberry buttercream, white chocolate raspberry with cream cheese frosting, strawberry vanilla made with our homegrown organic strawberries and chocolate zucchini cake made with homegrown organic zucchini. In addition to these great flavors, we also carry a variety of whoopie pies and cake pops. 

So come stop by and see us any Sunday. You never know what yummy goodies we might have that day!
