“In the entire circle of the year there are no days so delightful as those of a fine October.”
Alexander Smith
As we head toward the end of October, we have been enjoying some beautiful fall days, bright foliage and fresh and local fall produce at EFM!! The days are growing shorter but the flavor still remains: apples, beets, cabbages, carrots, potatoes, pumpkins, radishes and lots more -- and even a few tomatoes - so don't think the market season is over - it's just beginning with fresh and local fall goodness.

In honor of Lafayette College Family Weekend, Cabbage Throw Farm would like to extend a big thank you to the parents and families of Lafayette students for all your support this season. How does the saying go? "Families that cook together, eat together and stay together!"
Get together in the kitchen with all the goodness of the market. Cabbage Throw Farm will be bringing baby greens, including spinach, baby kale, arugula, and farmer mix to toss together for a tasty stir fry or salad. Lots of beets, cooking greens, Napa cabbage, fennel, radish, herbs and Microgreens too and with what will most likely be the last harvest of sweet snap peas this season.

Granny Smith apples are now available at Phillips Farms. Granny Smith apples are one of the most recognized apple varieties. But did you know, they are actually named after a real GRANNY SMITH!! Maria Ann Smith, nick-named "Granny Smith" in her later years, discovered the apple seedling on her farm in Australia in the mid-1800's. Granny Smith apples have bright white flesh and crisp texture, with a tart, acidic yet subtly sweet flavor. They are a favorite used in baking because of their delicious flavor and ability to hold its shape when cooked. Also, they are slow to brown when cut, so they are perfect to use raw in salads or on a cheese plate. Other apple varieties available at Phillips Farms this week: Honeycrisp, Fuji, Gala, Macoun, Jonagold, Ambrosia, Golden Delicious, Shizuka, Cortland and Suncrisp. Asian pears and our own Apple Cider will be available. Vegetables at Phillips Farms this week: Brussels sprouts, fennel, spinach, Sungold cherry tomatoes, Kirby cucumbers and garlic.

Holy Cow Farm
This will be Holy Cow Farm's last day of the regular market season, so make sure to stop by for an arrangement! The weather has been kind and the farm hasn't had any killing frosts yet, so they will still have some fresh flower bouquets. They will also be bringing some bunches of gomphrena (pictured), as well as some dried flowers. Holy Cow will be back at the Holiday Market in December with some dried flower creations, so this won't be your last chance to see Jenn and Bryan this year. They say thank you for a warm welcome and such a great first season at EFM!

Making his musical debut at EFM, Anthony Cubbage hails from Philadelphia, but his heart is that of a traveler. With music rooted in pop/folk foundations, his style also seeks inspiration from jazz and soul reminiscent of John Mayer and Jamie Cullum. Traveling across the US in a sleeper van and busking on the streets between gigs, he has given himself wholly to a life of a modern bohemian musician.
Pull up a chair in the North Lawn of the Circle to hear Anthony's singular unique style of music from 10 am to 12 noon.
