The sun will come out... TODAY!

Hello, City Greeners!


Market will be open tomorrow, Thursday, from 11-5! As is the same every week, I won't know exactly what we'll be getting until it arrives in the morning. But I will try to give you some idea of what should come in so you can plan accordingly. We're hoping to have:


Green onions
Swiss Chard
Kale
Asian Greens
Salad Mix
Heads of lettuce


As always, you can rest assured that our produce is as fresh as possible and has been grown naturally without the use of chemicals, pesticides, etc. 


NEW THIS WEEK:


Black Beans! Grown naturally at Bellews Creek Farm in Hillsboro, MO




REASONS TO EAT BLACK BEANS:


I came across this website which has some great information on the health benefits of eating black beans- take a look if you have some time http://whfoods.org/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=2 


If you don't, here's the summary:


-High in protein
-No sodium
-High in antioxidants
-High in Fiber
-Rich in Molybdenum (helps break down sulfites found in food)
-High in folate
-MAY assist in weight loss




We will have a fresh assortment of our Jellies and Jams, as well as a meat fridge stocked with all of our tasty pork products and grass-fed, free-range ground beef! We hope to see you this Thursday if you have the chance :)
