Lining up for Maine-grown food
Once again, there was a line of local foodies queuing up for Maine-grown goodness at today's Winter Farmers' Market in Monument Square. The list of food available hasn't changed much since I wrote about it back in December, and so I'm still able to stock up on my favorite veggie staples.
If you have yet to check out this winter market, mark your calendar for Feb. 18, when the next one takes place. Anyone can show up and buy from Daniel Perron at Sumner Valley Farm. However, you need to place an order with Freedom Farm/Thirty Acre Farm to get in on their good eats. You can jump on their email list by sending a message to eatlocalallyear@gmail.com. Doesn't that address just say it all?

Hi Avery! First of all, great blog! I am Keith and I am one of the farmers from the summer market. I am with Uncles Farm Stand, which you refer to as Uncle Andys Farm. I just wanted to let you know the correct name. :) Your blog is full of fantastic information and I am glad I finally found it. We work very hard at the farm and we appreciate our customers. We love providing you all with fresh locally grown veggies. We appreciate all of the business you have given us (you buy a lot of bluberries and maple syrup from us!) Looking forward to seeing you again this summer! Thanks!
