- First Farmers’ Market of 2009
by Jim
Saturday is our first Farmers’ Market. We will be in Princeton with salad greens, radishes, mint, rhubarb, popcorn, stinging nettle, and Plow Creek Bakery goods. We might have a few strawberries; if so we will limit them to one pint per customer. We hope for larger quantities in a week or so.
Market opens at 8:30 A.M. We probably won’t stay until official closing time of 2:00 P.M. so come early.

- Saturday markets (Peoria)
by Kevin
This Saturday Plow Creek blueberries debut at the Peoria Riverfront Market from 8AM to Noon. We will also sell at the Princeton Farmers’ Market from 8:30 to 2. Salad greens, herbs, bok choy, sweet onions, turnips and rutabaga are available, and the Princeton market will also include baked goods from Plow Creek Bakery
Sat. Jun 3, 2006
We will be at Princeton Farmers’ Market from 8:30 until 2:00 P.M. (But we may well leave earlier.) We will have a limited quantity of strawberries so will probably only sell a quart or two per customer so more people can taste them. More coming!
Plow Creek Bakery products are here. We have a little more variety, with kale, dill, cilantro, radishes, sugar snap peas and bok choy, as well as rhubarb, spinach, and salad mix, copies of our newsletter and the cookbook Simply in Season.
We don’t have enough strawberries to be open for picking yet. Possibly next week. Keep checking back here.
We will not have enough berries or other produce to make it to the Twin City Market yet. Sorry, friends!
