Welcome to Bedford County Locally Grown Farmers Market!

The Market Is Open!

Good evening everyone!

So happy to welcome a new farmer to the market; Scheryl from Southern Hope Farms – be sure to watch out for her listings.

Rocky Glade Farm have this week added Tumeric to the market, it like ginger and galangal is a rhizome. When cooking with it a rule of thumb is 1 inch of fresh equals 1 TBSP of fresh grated or 1 teaspoon of dried ground tumeric. It is a very healthy addition to your meals, smoothies and juices!
Happy Rich this week will have LOTS of broccoli shoots on it.
This is their last week to offer bell peppers, they are offering some small bundles at a discounted price… just cut up, de-seed and place in air tight container. They are also getting close to finishing their ginger and galangal harvest, so now is the time to stock up. Both freezes beautifully for use all winter.

Erdmann Farms has beautiful Arugula again – perfect on sandwiches!! They have amazing Hakurei Turnips, several kinds of kale, okra, radishes and more!

Petalland Flower and Herb Farm has several kinds of peppers; Corno de Toro peppers, jalapenos and habaneros.

Be sure to check out Farrar Farms Lynchburg Beef! They have; Stew Meat, Hamburger Patties and Ground Beef for sale.

Bloomin’ Shrooms has some beautiful Shiitake Mushrooms.

Botanical Harmony Farm have listed several more Goat Milk Soap scents; including the fall favourite: Orange Chai Spice.
They have also listed their Baby Bottom Cream (perfect for rashes, wounds, skin explosions) now in a 2oz Glass jar. Breathe (All-Natural “Vicks Vapor Rub”) also is in a new 2oz glass jar and Whipped Body Butter.

And if you still haven’t tried Casey Family Farm’s creamline milk – you NEED to!!!

We truly appreciate the customers and growers that continue to support this market. We are trying hard to spread the word and expand so this market can provide the organic, local groceries that the people of Shelbyville need.

Jenny with Seeds of Success has incredible seasonings and snack mixes!

Bloomin’ Shrooms continues to provide us with some BEAUTIFUL shiitake mushrooms.

Lynchburg Beef and Fountain Springs have great selection of healthy meats.

Linda at Dogwood Valley says this: After more rain than I care to think about, hopefully we will see some sunshine later today! I’m excited! It’s time to start cleaning out the fall garden and planting perennials and bulbs for next spring’s bloom! Fall is actually the best time of year to plant perennials, as well as a great time to get a jump on your spring gardening. Fall-planted perennials establish a strong root system over winter, allowing for spectacular spring blooming. It’s definitely time to take advantage of Dogwood Valley Greenhouse‘s “Fall Special” on perennial and herb plants and ferns: Buy 3, get one of equal or lesser value free. Please make a note on your order form of which plant you would like for free (name 3 choices).

So proud of our market and the growth we are seeing! Thank you all SO very much for the continued support!

See you Thursday!!

Three quick notes:
THANK YOU to everyone who continues to help this market succeed. We are working very hard to bring some of the BEST, organic, and local farm goods from people with a genuine love for all they do and the products they provide.

Third,
This is your market and we are proud to be a part of this. Please help us spread the word about how easy it is to order and pick up so many weekly necessities.
