Happy New Year from CCFM | Week of December 30, 2013

FRESH & LOCAL

Happy New Year from the Crescent City Farmers Market! Now is the time to think about the year behind us and look forward to the year ahead. We've been thinking about the many families we've helped gain access to fresh fruits and vegetables and how many more we can reach in the new year through our popular Market Match incentive program. With your support, we can continue to match food stamps/EBT purchases for low-income families to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. Please consider making a tax-deductible year-end gift http://www.marketumbrella.org/market/support_us.html today to help us offer healthy, tasty food to those who need it most while supporting our local farmers, fishers and food artisans who make every market possible.

PICK OF THE WEEK:

We are excited to welcome back Kid Chef Eliana to market Saturday, January 4 to kick off our 2014 Marketeers year! She will be shopping, preparing, and serving a market fresh and inspired dish for shoppers. Kid Chef Eliana is a great Marketeer leader; an awarded chef, cookbook author, and advocate for kid chefs everywhere. We are so lucky to have her as a market friend and supporter. Bring the kids out to learn, and be inspired and entertained as we kick off 2014 with a culinary bang!

The two main healthy ingredients in this Sweet Potato and Spinach Soup are both in season and available at the CCFM right now. Other less than healthy, but equally (more?) delicious ingredients on the list - like heavy whipping cream and butter - are available year-round!
