Farmers Market Friday: Leek and Potato Ravioli
A Westover Farmers Market seasonal recipe from International Palate:
There are some cooking ventures that are scarier than others. For some people, making pasta is something they would never try and leave the job to the professionals. Others may want to take on the challenge and try to make it themselves. But by the end of this recipe, you will see that making raviolis is not as hard as it may see. With the right ingredients, you can go far! Continue Reading
Farmers Market Friday: Leek Risotto
A new seasonal farmers market recipe from International Palate:
We all know that strange feeling when you realize that something you thought occurred a few weeks ago actually occurred a few months ago! The feeling presents itself more so as a shock…a shock of how quickly time goes by. Well, it’s 2016 and I’ve been waiting to share this recipe since May 2015…8 months ago. This recipe has been sitting on the back burner for quite some time now, only because it still feels like I made this recipe a week or so ago. But now, it’s finally time to share this recipe…before I forget about it again for another 12 months. Continue Reading.
Market open this Sunday 1/31
The Westover Farmers Market will be open this Sunday during usual winter hours, 9 – 1. Vendors will be back with their seasonal fruits and vegetables and with wonderful baked goods and other locally prepared foods. Come to the market to see where all of last Sunday’s snow has been placed! A monumental effort by local market volunteers to get the market reopened.
Jan. 24 Market Cancelled: Snowtastrophe '16
On account of the impending snow and the likelihood of difficult travel conditions, the Westover Farmers Market will not take place on January 24. Impromptu snow angel competition on the Reed School plaza instead. Stay safe, and see you on January 31.
Farmers Market Friday: Steamed Radishes
Try out a new recipe from International Palate…
The radish season is almost at its end. A few weeks back, back when radishes grew wild, I tried this recipe and immediately fell in love with it. While walking through the market this past weekend, I found a few bunches of radishes. Amidst … Continue reading
New Vendor: Whitmore Farm
Whitmore Farm http://www.whitmorefarm.com/ joins the Westover Farmers Market beginning this Sunday. Whitmore Farm raises pastured pork, eggs, and seasonal grass-fed lamb. The farm also raises a small amount of seasonal vegetables, cut flowers and starter plants. The farm is located in Frederick County, Maryland, outside the town of Emmitsburg off of U.S. Highway 15. The pigs and poultry are heirloom breeds humanely raised that yield pork, sausage, and eggs different from those found in most stores. Whitmore Farm will be located in stall spot # 31 at the north end of the market. Please give them a warm welcome!
New vendors: pie and soap.
In case your dessert habit is feeling a bit underfed these days, perhaps you might ponder Livin’ the Pie Life. Yes, that’s right: hand-made pies, local in Arlington, now at WFM. You know you want some. Look for them up on the plaza in front of the library.
And don’t you want to smell nice when you’re at the market kibitzing with neighbors? Felicity’s hand-crafted soaps has just the thing for you, in all manner of skin-friendly, nice-smelling options. Also look for them up on the plaza.
See you at the market!
