Good morning
It's starting to look a lot like spring as we shiver in the chilly air. Gardening tools and seeds are in the stores-lots of good things on sale at the market,
CSAs and Buying Plans popping up. Goranson and Tarbox Farms, Pine Tree Poultry and Springdale Farm, Oyster Creek Mushroom Co.,
are ready to talk with you about their offerings.
.
And next week many folks will celebrate St. Patricks' Day, a holiday of good will and fellow ship , even if you're not Irish shop here for a no blarney holiday feast!

Blueberry orange sweet roll from Beryls pastries
|
From our vendors-specials, sales, seasonal
Mainely Poultry offers a variety of duck pieces and products-check for smoked breasts too. They even grind it up for duck burger-quite delicious and it lends a festive air.
Soups at Maine Saltwater sell out fast-but don't go away empty handed if your favorite's gone. Check out something new-a vegan bean and vegetable, or that very winning creamy Cauliflower Cheddar-smooth and rich.
Have you tried the Kvass at Gracies Garden-Simply brine, and really refreshing, this briny drink from making vegetables is a snappy morning or mid afternoon pick me up,or, use whatever flavor you love for a Virgin or Bloody Mary for quick shot of intensity.

Kohlrabi and Ginger Kvass waiting at Gracies Garden
Enjoy the Tomme at Appleton on a frittatta or omelet. And do try the several salamis and other hard sausage made byThyme for Goat, that Caitlin is offering.
Kelley Brothers continues it's sale on soup and dog bones, short ribs and ground beef. And talk to Tammy about briskets and other cuts for the Big Green Holiday.
Dress up your Irish feast with a gorgeous piece of salmon from Pemaquid Lobster a& Seafood-It's just as Irish, and very amenable to some lovely potatoes and softly braised and spiced cabbage, easily found at Goranson's. Accompany with a few bottles of Saison from
Tarbox, and top it all off with a treat from one of our smashing bakers.

Yummy relish from Old Narrow Gauge
|
P
lenty of interesting desserts and treats for the 17th or any other day worth celebrating (we hope that's most days for you). Hootenanny offers that cushy dark chocolate dense brownie, made with, yes, buckwheat!
At Beryls look for muffins with unexpected delight-like rosemary fig & walnut, or a yummy tart, dressed with fruits and crumbs.
Borealis has just a few crusty vanilla-y scones, flavored with dried apricots, or sometimes blue or cranberries.
And Chase Farms rolls out traditional treats with fresh flair-last week fresh Bismarcks stuffed with apple filling, fresh pillowy Danish, or maybe a juicy blackberry pie.
|
Chicken salad and smoked ducks & chicken at Mainely Poultry
|
At Old Narrow Gauge Amy still has bacon - some Canadian- and lots of juicy pork chops. Snap up those last few jars of pickled fiddleheads, or some newly crafted and quite good pickle relish. for sandwiches and burgers.
Pine Tree is offering empanadas stuffed with turkey chorizo, buffalo chicken, or chicken and vegetables. Filling and fragrant, great for a quick lunch or supper.
Nanne at Meadowcroft wants to take your Easter Lamb orders asap-let her know so she can reserve your choice now. and check out her brilliantly dyed yarns if you or someone you know loves to knit-those colors will put a spring in your needles!
