SPLG BENEFIT: Foodies Unite!
Our monthly potluck socials hold promise for more than “just” fostering friendships. Equally valuable, lots of health conscious foodies attend and share wonderful recipes you can easily make at home. Taste test serendipitous “trough” dishes; try different types of hummus like this smoky paprika hummus I like to add roasted red bell peppers, skinned and unseeded, and use less olive oil to keep end product consistency thick enough. There is likely to be a nice salad dressing available for the variety of salads that appear. Your can’t go wrong with this Paleo French Dressing. It is my new “go to!” dressing. So bring your own specialty to share with your fellow Market Members, most of whom are looking for new ways to dress up their current menus. If you are ready to learn more about what to do with the veggies and produce we sell on our Market, consider taking full advantage of your membership benefits at St. Pete Locally Grown. Attend the next potluck social on June 26th. Find your email invite from www.whoozin.com and do RSVP if you can.

SUMMERTIME RESOURCES
It is that time of year when change in seasons causes veggie resources to fluctuate due to the summer heat. We are in hot pursuit of new resources but until we can locate them or they even come into an existence, we will sustain our small local business using different strategies for providing great summer fare for our customers. As in the past years, we are doing our best to find the summer produce that is grown locally. If it exists then we are going to find it. If you know about sources then please get in touch and I will pursue it. We want to serve you year round. We are SO fortunate to have local growers like Brenon’s Homegrown, Ida’s Garden, and Faithful Farms to support us all summer long! Your patience and support are much needed, especially for these upcoming summer months. This is even more reason for you all to learn to grow your own food, even in the summer. Let Nathan teach you. Next Saturday 8AM come find out and get your seeds in the ground.
“GIVEAWAYS!”
So many of this weeks offerings can be grilled or wrapped in foil and baked on the grill, and I am selling some items at “very close to cost” to get them out the door! I have created a new category I call “Giveaways”. These items are priced way below local retailers so I’m practically giving them away. I’ve chosen to use this strategy rather than have spoiled produce that won’t keep until next Market. Most of the time I have a partner with a small business who shares the minimum order I am required to make from a local organic distributor. However, whenever I have to “go it alone” I will be posting “giveaways” for our customers. The benefits of your membership is getting these kinds of deals under these tricky circumstances. I invite you to recruit friends to get these great deals as well! It is a win-win for everyone with good healthy fresh produce at excellent pricing!
SATISFACTION GUARANTEED
Our Market has high standards for what it sells. Despite that—as seasons transition—the challenges of evolving weather and pesky insects can take its toll on the crops. Market Growers are being very selective about what they are willing to present to you. No, it won’t always be picture perfect (which is part of its charm) and sometimes an insect is going to evade capture! But we won’t send you anything that we wouldn’t eat ourselves. If for any reason we have goofed and you are dissatisfied, please report it to me right away so we can rectify the situation. That’s how we get better and we all benefit from that. Your satisfaction is key to our success as a resource for St. Petersburgs’ lovers of chemical-free, organically & locally grown vegetables.
SPLG’s fruit basket
Ruby pink grapefruit, Fuji apples, Haas avocados, Medjool dates, Cantaloupes, Gold Pineapples, and papayas.

So if you need anything, now is the time to order! Let me know if you have any questions or want to add to your order at christiesausa@icloud.com.
Thanks!

McColloms Market: June FFFN Order - Just a Reminder
Good Morning!
I just wanted to remind everyone that the order is open until around 5 pm tonight. This is the last order until September.
The pick up will be at my house on Wed from 4:30-6:45.
Thanks.
Melinda
Martin's Farmstand: More rain!
It is lovely to listen to more rain on the roof! I was just out working in the greenhouse. The weather is lovely in the greenhouse. I just picked 5 pails of beautiful zucchini from our greenhouse. This is the last week for asparagus till next year.
We are starting to see some ripening strawberries already. We should be picking by next week. It looks as if we will have a small amount of strawberries at a time, spread over a long time. What should be the peak of the season will be empty because of the frost damage. The apple and pear trees have lots of nice little fruit on them. We may need to eat less strawberries and more apples this year.
Joyful Noise Acres Farm: Don't forget to place your orders.
Good morning, please don’t forget to place your orders before 8:00 tonight. We have plenty of fresh cheese, butter, milk and eggs.
Cedar Rock Dairy has steaks, ground beef and bones that are not listed on the market, send me a private e-mail and I will have it here on WEdnesday. His prices are about the same as Four Mile Farm. She will have more beef available the end of July.
Thank you for supporting local farms and artisans. Your food dollars matter.
Blessings,
Mary Beth
