The market is open for ordering until 9 pm Tuesday.

Mountain Meadows Farm will not have products available for this market but will be back for the November 13th market. Please check the products from our other meat vendors. Some are new to our market and reviews from members who have tried these products have been thumbs up.

There will only be one market in November, the 13th as the next one would have been on the day after Thanksgiving.

Pickup will be Friday October 30th at Emergent Arts between 3:30 and 5:30, earlier in that period if at all possible.
