Tomatoes, peppers, cukes, figs, basil...Tastes like summer!


This post expired on August 11, 2023.

Hey y’all.
We’ve got all sort of deliciousness coming in this week. Our newest vendor, Big Al (who tends the Edible Landscape Kingdom!) is bringing in the tastiest figs I’ve ever tasted (except maybe some I had in California, but they have some cool nights and dry air that I consider an unfair advantage).
Check them out in the fruit section of the market.

Bulk Goods
We are now able to offer bulk goods via the Grain Mill in Wake Forest! So far we have Oats, and freshly milled wheat flour (including pastry flour from “soft” white wheat and bread flour from “hard” red wheat). We can also get other products from the Grain Mill website (although sadly quinoa has been in short supply this year with all the recent coverage about how healthy it is). It may take longer than the standard weekly order cycle for things that are in the Grain Mill catalog, but don’t have a goMarket listing. Check their site out here.

We’ve also got new juicy “New Girl” slicing tomatoes from Homegrown City Farm, peppers from Wild Dog Farm and great herb & flower arrangements from Lee Attracting Birds and Bees. And don’t forget roasted to taste coffee from Beanpeace Roastery on Iredell St.
just a block south from NCSSM.
Place your orders here.

End of Summer Sale
Through Memorial Day weekend, we are offering new members a $10 rebate (awarded as store credit). If you’ve hit the two-order limit with your trial membership, this is a great opportunity to reconnect with the delicious bounty of urban and extra-urban Durham. If you’ve been thinking about trying us out this is a great time to get started.
Green blessings,
-Eric
