Updates from the Farm Market


Cherry Hill Farm Soaps

Beth, at Cherry Hill Farm, has been busy making soap for the holidays. She has added some new varieties: Honey Soap and Bear Soap, and has brought back many customer favorites: Energy, Oatmeal Lavender, Raspberry Tart, Charcoal, Appalachia, Honeysuckle, Southern Belle, Plain Jane, Cup O’ Oats, and S.O.S.

All of Beth’s soaps are handmade in small batches. Most (with the exception of the Honey and Bear Soaps) are made with the goat’s milk they milk from their own herd of goats. These soaps are great for your skin and are long-lasting. They also make great gifts.

GreenSpace Microgreens

Dan with GreenSpace microgreens checked in with us last week to let us know that they are back up and running,but they are expecting a new addition to their family any day now. Once they are all settled in from that, they will be listing items again. Here’s wishing them well with their new arrival.

New Vendor Joining Soon

We have a new vendor joining our online market soon. We are hoping to have her items added to the listings by tomorrow. Items will include jams, biscotti and granola. As the items are added, we will send out an email to let you know what is available and give you more information on this amazing fellow farmer.

Updates From Rispoli’s Produce

The Rispoli’s report that this is the last week they will have eggplant and peppers available. Get them before they are all gone. They also have turnips, kale, blue potatoes and brown eggs.

Still Looking for a Fruit Producer

Upon reviewing our customer satisfaction surveys, we found that many of you are searching for apples. We are too! We have been on the prowl, trying to find some small fruit producers to fill that need. The difficulty we are having is that many of our local orchardists work on such a large scale that they only sell by the huge bins and typically to large grocery stores and such.

We have not given up hope yet though and will continue our search. If you would know of a smaller scale orchard that we could appreciate, please feel free to let me know.
