Angelina's Kitchen
Hello wonderful Fearrington Market supporters :)
August 15 is a HUGE holiday in Greece. The religious are celebrating the dormition of the Virgin Mary. The not-so-religious still get in on the celebrations!  Athens is a ghost town and all the islands and villages are full. One thing is certain, the Greeks still love to party no matter what the political and economic conditions present!
Our menu this week will include the very popular Rosiki Salata, our version of the delicious Russian potato salad. We'll also have fresh-baked mushroom moussaka and vegetarian shepherd's pie. Easy to take home and enjoy for dinner!
We'll have a few avgolemono and lentil soup. Also going to bring a few xortopita and greens bake for the regulars.
And finally - there will be a few key lime pies.
Thank you so much for your ongoing support - we appreciate it!

Perry-winkle Farm
Michael and I want to thank those loyal customers who braved the rain last week to support the market and its farmers. It is always so validating to see folks and hear them thank us for coming out in the rain as well -- thank you.
A new bed of arugula is ready for harvesting, so we plan to have a full cooler for market this week. We will have more eggplant, both oriental and globe varieties. There will be 6 different varieties of potatoes -- let us know which ones are your favorite.
We will have a cooler full of frozen Freedom Ranger chicken; we will have whole birds and all of your favorite cuts. These birds are raised on pasture so they get plenty of exercise which means they develop great flavor. They get moved every day to ensure they have fresh forage and a clean environment. We will also have some eggs -- Jumbo, Large, Mediums and Pullet-sized.
Look for a bucket of zinnias, bunches of sunflowers and celosia this week along with a rack full of colorful mixed bouquets. Plan on taking home some "local color" this week.
gratefully,
Mike Perry and Cathy Jones
