For our regular Market patrons, many of you have gotten to know Carrie, our faithful Market Assistant. Carrie has been an integral part of our Market operations, and this past Saturday we bid her goodbye, as she embarks on an exciting year of studies in England. We wish you much success, and our little Market family will definitely miss your positive attitude, smiles, and helping hands @ The Market.
With the last official weekend of summer, but warm weather in the forecast, plan to stop by this Saturday morning to pick up your fresh produce for the week. You will see by our farmers’ tables that September in Niagara is by far one of the best harvest months. Available for purchase are grapes, apples, pears, microgreens, herbs, beets, garlic, eggplant, zucchini, potatoes, and much, much more. Nothing tastes as good as farm to table food! Always available are a wide variety of jams and jellies, local honey, pickles, baked goods, maple syrup, and other items to make week-day meal planning a cinch.
The abundance of fruit available at this time of the year makes it easy to whip up a delicious, nutritious dessert that utilizes everything local. Check out this wonderful recipe for BBQ’d Summer Fruit Gratin from Foodland Ontario, which contains peaches, pears, raspberries, and delicious Coronation grapes. So quick and easy; add a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream to make it complete! https://www.ontario.ca/foodland/recipes/barbecued-summer-fruit-gratin
