Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market: With Gratitude

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. - Melody Beattie

The Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market Managers and Vendors Wish You a Safe, Happy Thanksgiving Holiday.

This week Krista Wagner of Nature's Honey tells us:

"A new soap bar this week! Some of you might have had a chance to try it in its mini-soap form, which I offered a couple weeks ago. Now I have large bars! Evergreen Envy is one of my absolute favorite blends, made from Bay, Rosewood, and Pine Essential Oils. It is a great woodsy smell that both men and women will love. This soap also has bentonite clay, my key ingredient all my shaving bars, so this bar can be duel-purpose...both for the bath and shaving!

The produce selection is colorful, flavorful, and plentiful! And, we are starting to see autumn squash like butternut and acorn and... pumpkins.


Jane Varley of Valley Valley shares this week's report:


September is a great time to visit the market. The summer produce is still available and the fall produce is just starting to come in. In addition, we typically have wonderful weather this time of the year.

Sarah has been busy picking wild grapes and turning them into wild grape jelly. If you have never had any, please stop by for a sample. It really doesn’t taste like the typical Concord grape jelly. The fruit is very sour so it makes a wonderful sweet and tart jelly. Sarah is planning to spend some time at the market tomorrow cleaning the latest batch of grapes. If you haven’t met Sarah (my bread apprentice and jam business partner), please stop by and say hello.

Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market: September 2nd Market Report

It's a beautiful day in Uptown Westerville, so it must be Market Wednesday and the Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market will be open for business from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

The colors and flavors of summer continue to reflect in the beautiful produce, flowers, and artisan foods from our market vendors.

This week, we will not see Sue's Kitchen, but Sue will be back next week with her great pies, cookie stacks, and coffee bread. (Check out Sue's blog
fromsueskitchen or follow Sue on twitter at suebakespies.)

And, Eddie Lou Meimer is involved in the Morrow County Fair, so we won't see Pleiades Maple Products this week, either.

Jane Varley of Varley Valley sends her market report:

We certainly have had some great weather recently. Sarah has been busy picking wild grapes and hopes to have some wild grape jelly next week. For those of you who don’t know, wild grapes are quite a bit different than the domesticated varieties. They are very small and quite tart. Their small size makes for a lot of labor but their tartness makes excellent jelly.

This week we added low sugar rhubarb jam and low sugar spiced tomato jam.

We will also have the following breads available at this week’s market:

Challah
Orange Swirl
Lemon Swirl
Cinnamon Swirl
Cinnamon Raisin Swirl
Oatmeal Raisin
Sourdough White --in both Italian and Baguette form
Rustic Sourdough (3/4 white flour and ¼ whole wheat flour) – in
Italian, Baguette, and Boule form
Totally Wheat
Parmesan Peppercorn Totally Wheat
Parmesan Herb Totally Wheat – this is a very mild loaf that is a great accompaniment for dinner
Birdseed Nut Totally Wheat – this is a form of our very popular Birdseed Nut Bread using all whole wheat flour. It is heavier than the standard Birdseed Nut Bread but has the same great crunchiness and taste.

We will also be offering tastes of sourdough bread using all whole wheat flour. We would love to get your feedback.

See you at the market!

Jane

Thanks, Jane!

The Horsts of Amherst Greenhouse will have their beautiful mums -- $5 per pot and the mums with ornamental grass pots are $20.

Dale Benedict of Honey Health Farms (if you haven't tasted Honey Health's raw honey yet, you are missing out!) will have autographed copies of his new book about Miss Moxie the Honeybee.

So, stop by for the peak of produce, meats for the grill, eggs, veggie burgers, fresh baked goods, chutneys, jams, jellies, cheese, raw honey, and to wash up for dinner, stop by Nature's Honey to check out Krista Wagner's wonderful natural ingredient soaps.

Thanks to the City of Westerville and Westerville Magazine for including the market in the September/October community calendar!

Remember, while you're uptown for the market to take a little time and Shop Uptown Westerville. Be sure to step carefully around the ladders at W. Main and N. State at the old Holmes Hotel.

Meza
, 48 N. State, always features a Market Wednesday $1 wine tasting and Tatjana Brown's selection of made-in-Ohio pantry foods are the perfect compliment to a wonderful meal.

Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market: August 26th Market Report

It's a beautiful day in Westerville, Ohio and it could not be a more perfect day to visit the Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market.

A feast for the senses, a trip to the market is fun, relaxing, and an adventure. You never know who you'll meet, what new flavors you might taste, and what you might find!

10% of today's receipts from most market vendors will go to the Westerville South High School Athletic Boosters. Thanks to Mary Bridgman of Bridgman Farm (see the tomatoes above!) for her efforts.

Malabar Acres orchard is now a weekly market feature. Their peach crop may have been wiped out by a freeze, but their apples are plentiful, beautiful, and fresh-picked. Last week, they featured Granny Smith's and Cortland's.

This week, we welcome back Amherst Greenhouse -- their beautiful potted mums are something to behold and a good value.

Jane Varley of Varley Valley sent us her market report. Jane shares:

Hello everyone. I bought a bushel and a half of apples from Malabar Farms last week and have been busily making apple butter. If you haven’t tried some of Mike’s pesticide free apples stop by his tent this week. I was so busy with the apples I didn’t get a chance to make the low sugar rhubarb jam or the low sugar spiced tomato jam that I promised a few people. I will definitely have them for next week’s market.

It looks like it will be perfect weather so Sarah and I baked up a storm. I made my absolute favorite bread (to eat – not necessarily to make), jalapeno cheddar garlic. If you like the hot taste of jalapenos, stop by and try a sample.

Sue Renner of Sue's Kitchen
, along with her cookie stacks and coffee breads, will be bringing pies, including mini blueberry pies and a big hit last week -- Blueberry Crumb Bars. Visit Sue's charming blog: fromsueskitchen.blogspot.com!


Jane Varley of Varley Valley
will be bringing her delicous, fresh-baked breads along with a wide selection of jams and jellies.


Doran's Family Farm
will, of course, have sweet corn. And, since few to no Ohio peaches available anywhere this year due to a freeze, to answer customer requests, Doran's will be bringing a small selection of peaches from a Pennsylvania orchard.


Krista Wagner of Nature's Honey
soaps will bring her usual selection of smell-good-and-clean and is featuring her popular Honey Almond Oatmeal soap.


Pleiades Maple Products
will not be attending today's market... Pleiades Farm is makin' hay!

We encourage you to Shop Uptown Westerville when you visit the market each Wednesday. Meza, 48 N. State, features a $1 Wednesday Wine Tasting along with pantry compliments to your market purchases.

Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market: Varley Valley's August 5th Market Report


Jane Varley of Varley Valley shares her August 5th market report:


Blackberry season is coming to an end. Maybe our “war wounds” will finally heal. Between the thorns, mosquitoes, and chiggers Sarah feels like she has been through a battle, if not a full blown war. Elderberry season is now underway and we have been busy picking and juicing the berries. We hope to have some elderberry jelly soon.

I have been thinking about adding some fruit syrups to our product line. Let me know if this is something you would be interested in. The pricing would be similar to our jellies. The syrup could be used to top pancakes, French toast or ice cream. It can also be used in making drinks (such as blackberry margaritas – my brother’s special creation).

This week we have added the following Jams: Low sugar sweet cherry, low sugar blueberry, grapefruit marmalade, and brandied grapefruit marmalade. I know what you are thinking; it is out of season for grapefruit. Last winter, I froze the juice and the peels and have finally gotten around to the tedious chore of slicing the peels into itty bitty strips. If you like orange marmalade, stop by and try some of my grapefruit marmalade.
