11/18 Last Market Day of the Season

Thanks to all of our vendors for a spectacular farmer’s market season! And thanks to all of you for coming out every weekend to support local farmer’s and producers-we love fresh produce! During our last market day, we will have your regular vendors as well as a few local artists selling and showcasing their work. Come out to join us for an extra special day and grab your Thanksgiving day groceries. We will have our AFAC box ready for donations that you can purchase at the market or bring from home. We look forward to seeing you there!

We are still looking for a few more local Arlington Artists to set up their own table and tent on our very last market day, November 18th. Artists will be allowed to sell their crafts on our last day Craft Fair! Please contact Deniese Degges at [email protected] with your name, email, phone number, a description of what you sell, prices and a few images.

See you at Barrett Elementary School on Saturday, November 18th, between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. And don’t forget your pre-orders for Saturday pickup! We’ll see you at the Market!

Just a reminder: Our last market day is November 18th this year. Our sister market, Westover Farmer’s Market will run through the full winter season.

RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Strawberry-Rhubarb Cornmeal Skillet Cake

INGREDIENTS

Rosemary Whipped Cream

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

3 (5-inch) rosemary sprigs

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Strawberry-Rhubarb Cake

1 cup all-purpose flour (about 4 1/4 ounces), sifted

½ cup fine yellow cornmeal (about 2 7/8 ounces)

½ teaspoon kosher salt

¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (6 1/2 ouncse), at room temperature, divided

1 ½ cups granulated sugar

3 large eggs, at room temperature

1 ½ ounce goat cheese (about 3 tablespoon), at room temperature

⅓ cup buttermilk, at room temperature

2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste

1 cup halved fresh strawberries

¾ cup diagonally sliced fresh rhubarb (1/2-inch pieces) (from about 3 ounce rhubarb stalks)

2 tablespoons turbinado sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Make the rosemary whipped cream
  2. Combine heavy cream and vanilla bean paste in a small bowl. Rub rosemary sprigs between hands to release their oils, and add to bowl; stir mixture until combined. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 4 hours. Pour mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a large bowl; discard solids. Beat cream mixture with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar; beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 45 seconds. Cover rosemary whipped cream with plastic wrap; refrigerate until ready to use, up to 12 hours.
  3. Make the strawberry-rhubarb cake
  4. Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet in oven, and preheat oven to 350°F. Let skillet preheat about 10 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, whisk together flour, cornmeal, and salt in a small bowl until combined; set aside. Place 3/4 cup butter in bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on high speed, stopping occasionally to scrape down sides of bowl, until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add granulated sugar, beating on high speed and stopping occasionally to scrape down sides of bowl, until mixture is light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. With mixer running on low speed, crumble in goat cheese; beat until just combined, about 30 seconds. Gradually add flour mixture, beating until just combined, about 1 minute. Add buttermilk and vanilla bean paste, beating until just combined, about 1 minute.
  6. Carefully remove hot skillet from oven, and add remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Swirl skillet until butter is melted. Carefully pour in cake batter; smooth top if needed. Arrange strawberries and rhubarb in an even layer on batter; sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  7. Bake in preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted into center of cake comes out clean, 55 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool slightly on a wire rack, about 15 minutes. Serve cake warm with a dollop of rosemary whipped cream.

Hurricane Ian Impacts! 

Well, the weather conditions for Saturday do not look so great (but thankfully, nowhere near what passed through Florida or South Carolina).  We’re thinking of those who were (or will be) in Ian’s path. 

Meanwhile, the Market plans to be open Saturday, but will have a VERY limited vendor set-up.  So, if you can, dodge some raindrops and come show support for those vendors that are able to be there to serve you, rain or shine.  AFAC will not be collecting from the market this Saturday. Westover will be operating Sunday in case you miss tomorrow’s vendors.

We will have: Twin Springs, Hog Haven, Great Valley and Kuhn’s Orchard at the market today!

Pease follow our social media, FacebookTwitter, or Instagram, or check our website, for last-minute updates; vendor and patron safety is always paramount!  For now, we plan to be at Barrett Elementary School, on Saturday, October 1, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.  And don’t forget your pre-orders for Saturday pick-up!  We’ll see you at the Market!! 

WE HAVE SWAG!!!
