Wood River Farmer’s Markets August 18 & 20

August 17, 2009

dsc_0045_dxo_rawGrowing season for our farmers is really hitting full stride and vendors booth are overflowing with mid-summer goodness (see the seasonal produce calendar as a good overview of what is available). Not only is this great for feasting on the freshest of fruits and vegetable but now is a good time to make purchases for canning and long term storage. Talk with your favorite vendors about making a bulk purchase and get some good ideas for long term storage of their products. That way you can store away a bit of summer to enjoy on a cold winters day.

This week Tuck Wilson will be playing tunes in Ketchum – Hailey music is ‘To Be Announced’ but we hope to have a special surprise.

At both markets this week Derek Gallegos – owner of 310 Main in Hailey will be giving chef demonstrations using items available the market. These demonstrations are very popular and an excellent way to learn new ideas for your market purchases.
