Is it Fall Already?

Prior Week Wrap Up
Last week was our first week of market during Fall hours. Beginning in September, the market is an hour later (8am to noon). I'm all torn up about the extra hour of sleep - but I'll soldier on. If you didn't make it to last week's market you missed chile roasting and piles of amazing corn. We really are at peak produce; the tables are overflowing will all kinds of goodies.



Last Saturday we sold out of everything early enough to shut down and pack up before noon. The chicken pita folds were gone by 9:58 am and they got several votes to return on the Best Of menu (see voting section below). People were loving Kei's berry tarts:



Coming this Week
This week, we continue our culinary tribute to the Olympics. Gotta hold on to that feeling, know what I mean? Our second Greek menu draws from our catering items. Kei is using some lovely all natural ground buffalo from Colorado combined with organic tomato and local herbs to make Savory Buffalo Phyllo Rolls. She'll also be combining local spinach and herbs with goat cheese from Old Windmill Dairy in our Spinach Cheese Phyllo Triangles. I'll be making Pecan Baklava - and not using the namby-pamby shortcut of piling all the nuts in one or two thick layers. We'll combine your choice of two baked treats with our tzatziki sauce and a composed Greek salad - so, make it a Pick a Pair Combo Plate. The salad includes Old Windmill Dairy feta, local cukes and tomato, olives, and our own Greek dressing. Local sources for this week include: Amyo Farm, B's Honey Farm, The Old Windmill Dairy, Mike and Lydia Baker, Chispas Farm, Gruet Winery, Lori's Farm, and Macias Farm.


Don't Forget to Vote
Beginning next Saturday, we'll bring back your favorite Good Nosh dishes for our final two weeks at the Downtown Growers Market. It's our Best Of Menu. We have a stack of paper ballots filled out from market goers last week, and hope for another fat stack this week. Please take a few moments to vote online or fill out a ballot at our booth tomorrow. To vote on the web, visit our site and you'll see two polls on the right hand sidebar. You can select more than one item.
