 Scroll Down for a complete list of who will be vending this week

Hello MP Market Goers!

Summer is slipping away, fall will be here before we know it and you know what comes after that….winter! If you love to eat fresh and local year round, it’s time to make that happen. While summer produce is still in abundance, now is the time to get some in your freezer or cellar!  Head to market Saturday morning and start preparing for delicious, winter meals. From green beans and corn to tomatoes and zucchini, all these and more can be frozen for enjoyment later. Here’s our favorite sweet corn freezing recipe.

If you plan to process a large amount, our vendors would appreciate a pre-order so that they can plan to bring enough to market. Scroll down to find vendor specific instructions for pre-ordering.

Late summer and fall crops are also starting to appear at market. And this week, Farmers Daughter Bakery and Kitchen will have PEARS! Yum!!!

We look forward to seeing you this Saturday in Water Tower Park, Business Hwy 151 at Madison Street, Mineral Point! 8:30 to 11:00 a.m.

Shooting Star Farm
We got some cover crops in and some weeding done just before the rain was due to hit over the weekend. I was beginning to regret not irrigating, when finally the skies opened up early Monday morning. The farm has had .7” so far this week and more may fall as storms are brewing as I write this! For you lettuce lovers, I may have a bit this weekend, but am sadly still very short on heads. I will have some salad mix, but best to arrive early as supplies are limited. Steamy weather hasn’t helped production! Lots of summer veggies for the weekend including red tomatoes, roma tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, heirloom tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, green beans, colorful bell peppers, shishito peppers, napa cabbage, kale, Swiss chard, leeks, lots of colorful beets, basil, parsley, dill, eggplant, and a few hot peppers.
