Good Morning,
Brave shoppers, we can cope with the big chill. Wear your warmest to come shopping, we have good heat but this is an old building, on the river.
And it is a great time to think hearty and satisfying when you are making meals. Winter vegetables - celeriac, parsnip, carrot, rutabaga, turnip, potatoes - are the heart of a beautiful experience stewed up with a bit of good protein. Preorder chicken carcasses at Mainely Poultry and make a batch of fresh chicken stock. Grab stew or soup beef at Kelley, goat & lamb at Fuzzy Udder, lamb at Meadowcroft. Check at Goranson for fresh or dried herbs, use their microgreens to brighten up the final aromatic bowl. Or stock up on haddock, salmon, shellfish, at Pemaquid, and grab potatoes and onions, milk from Chase, for you very own fish chowder.
Mushroom lovers take note: the drought is over. Stop at the North End and welcome Julio of Wan Love Farm. He is bringing us beautiful fresh mushrooms: last weeks' Oysters and Lions Mane were gone by my 10 AM arrival, but there were plenty of shiitake, large and small; those little ones did well on last nights' cheese omelet!

Life without onions is hard to imagine. Get some of each at Goranson Farm; they still have some nice leeks too. |

Pumpernickel bread: it's densely dark texture and caraway spiked flavor carries heavy soups, welcomes most any kind of butter, spicy mostarda, prosciutto and its brethren. Or just nibble a bit. This from Hootenanny

Richly good, the peanut butter cookies from Chase fulfill their promise. Cookie fans go for the Multipack of 6. featuring chocolate chip, molasses and oatmeal. Great for outdoor days.

Ribeye, strip or tenderloin - tough choices. This customer took two of three. Tammy at Kelly is happy to suggest the right cut for you. |
Plump mussels make you feel good: just ask the lined up fans at Pemaquid Lobster & Seafood. The oysters are lovely too. Indulge in a healthy treat

Welcome Julio of Wan Love Farm and his lovely mushrooms. You'll find them at the North End, river side. |
Cold feet from traipsing around this winter? Anna at Mana Medicinals recommends a Turmeric Tea, made with her tonic and some hot water. This golden goodness will warm you all over. |
Chicken rules at Mainely Poultry, tho there are other foul in play. Check the board for inspiration, and if you haven't, try the sausages, full of flavor and just right texture. |
The little cakes at Alchimia vary weekly, but you can always find a chocolate or fruit choice. Some are GF, check with Monica. |
Another way to warm your feet. Capsumel from Fat Friar, laced with chili pepper, fine on it's own or mixed in a midwinter cocktail: Sean has a recipe or 2 to share. |
This Honduran medium roast from Big Barn is a willing partner to any meal, or maybe just a moment of plain enjoyment. |
Try eating just 1 of these sugar cookies at Stewart & Reid, they sort of call to your fingers.
Preordering
Many vendors will take preorders right at the market; so ask if you are missing a favorite or rotating specialty.
