The Zahradka Family Farm 

has been bringing fresh produce to the

Tuesday Market each week.

The corn is sweet, the tomatoes are fresh

and the peppers are abundant!

Stuffed Peppers

Hot peppers include cayenne, jalapeno, and habanero Peppers make a great addition to cold salads, sandwiches, stir fries, roasts, soups, and casseroles. Larger varieties can be stuffed with rice and ground beef.  Remove stem and seeds, stuff cavity with meat & rice.  Mold rice & beef into a ball by adding a raw egg, place in baking dish-cover & cook slowly till rice & meat are done.

The Green Onion Market, 

located at 5500 Harford Road, features locally made products on the shelves.  Lauraville Laundry detergent, Healing Fields soaps, a variety of pickles and a selection of fresh products from Kinderhook, are just some of the choices available.

Market Days

And another market day is upon us. While we can't seem to shake this heat spell, or stop talking about it for that matter, we can attempt to cool off with some juicy fresh fruit and ice cream from the market. Or perhaps relax on one of the artistic berry seats scattered through the market lot.

Market goers cooling off with some Prigel Family ice cream. What is your favorite flavor?

Relaxing on the berry seating that is scattered through the market lot. Which berries can you recognize?

If it is just too hot for you to even think about cooking, why not whip up a quick and nutritious smoothie with Tony Fetter's Fruit Farm's or Zahradka's fruits and veggies. Cantaloupe and Peach? Rainbow Chard and Peach? 

What are some of your favorite hot weather recipes, to help you stay cool? Come stop by the market and let us know! 

The weather has broken!

Now that we can safety venture outside again without instantly turning into prunes, it is time to add some substance to our meals as well! No more living off of smoothies and ice, just to stay hydrated and cool! Although, we can never say no to a freshly juiced beverage from Jukai Juice Company.

We can now elevate our meals to... cucumber and tomato salads, with juicy peaches as an accompanying dessert. All, of course, found at your lovely farmers market. Check out Zahradka Family Farm and Tony Fetters Fruit Farm. 

PEACHES

As part of our continuing "love your neighborhood" series, we are featuring two different neighborhood loving residents this week, as taken from the Live Baltimore photo booth session a few weeks ago.  What do YOU love about your neighborhood?

"Lauraville: The small community feel. Everyone knows and helps. Snowstorms are no problem, with neighbors who work together." We agree, Dee, and think the same thing goes for all harsh weather conditions! 

"I love the biking community." As do we, Elliott!
