Cold but Mostly Sunny.
Temps climbing to 50.

Looks like we caught a good forecast this time.
Breezes will be light, so the air will be more comfortable. Mostly sunny and nowhere near as cold as the previous two Saturdays. Good for the farms, for the artists, for the shoppers. Let’s sell some Jersey Fresh and some holiday gifts. 

Revolution Roasters handles the fresh-roasted beverages, while El Sitio provides fantastic Ecuadoran specialties including empanadas and Pan de Yuca (cassava cheese bread treats). Villa Barone features familiar favorite sauces, tasty zeppolis, sometimes their own fresh mozzarella. Sara’s Produce is back in their usual space after a couple weeks off. Lost Bread Co. of Philadelphia has taken up the familiar bakery space.

Butternut Squash Vegetable Puree Soup

Denine Gorniak (the bicycle-chef) Beef Stew with Red Wine in the Instant Pot. Stew It is indisputably soup weather, and Denine’s recipe this week is perfectly timed to take advantage of early winter vegetables. Easily a vegan recipe, or it can be made with chicken stock, this soup has a creamy mouth feel without dairy because of the inclusion of Russet or Idaho Potatoes and the natural creaminess of butternut squash. Get organic butternuts from Muth or Savoie as Denine did, or substitute a Blue Hubbard or an Acorn. You’ll find everything you need at the Market this last week of the season. Freeze some for the long off-season, and we’ll see you again the first Saturday in May, 2020. Go to Denine’s blog for the rest!

Handmade Holidays

Another Week of
HANDMADE HOLIDAYS Sweepstakes

This week, SAT NOV 23, we’ll be repeating a Handmade Holidays special event that we debuted last week. We’ll invite our shoppers to vote for their favorite artists and crafters (and by favorite we mean “most likely to get my money when I have some”).

We’ll tally the votes for promotional purposes and draw one winner at random for $50 in Market Gift Certificates to be spent on art.

HANDMADE HOLIDAYS 

For the final four weeks of the Market (after the first of the farms have departed for the season), we celebrate local art, craft, and original handmade items sold by the hands that make them. No resale, no thrift items; these are quality juried crafts and specimen art pieces (some practical, some whimsical, all eminently giftable)!

Small Bills and a Parking Pass

Many of you know, but for those of you who don’t, I carry small bills for vendors who run out of singles, fives, or tens during the Market day. For guest vendors who might not be aware, I also have parking passes to the Lumberyard Garage where you can park for free, with no meter, and free up a space for 10 or 15 of your customers to use during the four hours of the Market.

VENDOR PARKING PERMITS

It’s good business to save the best parking spaces for SHOPPERS! Most visitors will tell you it’s tough to find parking at the Market. We make things worse by parking our own vehicles in spaces that could be used and re-used many times by shoppers. Please encourage your table crew to park for free in the Lumberyard Parking Garage (just across Collings Avenue from the west entrance). There are plenty of spaces inside, and the walk back to the Market takes 3 minutes.

Flexible Site Plan

Changes will continue to occur throughout the season as vendors come and go and as we learn more about how neighbors interact. I remind you no spaces are ever guaranteed and require your cooperation if I have to move your location any given week.

THANK YOU

Sunny but cold. Temps in the 30s.

Chilly temperatures.
Temps start in the 30s and pretty much stay there, but with sun throughout. 

That’s not the scary part. Wind is the scary part.
Wind is forecast to be substantial, double-digit all the way, topping out at 17 mph. That makes the cold feel colder, and it can be disaster to delicate or lightweight table-top displays. Be advised. 

Simplify your presentation. Tent weights are demanded. Bring bungees to lash your tent to your neighbor’s tent. Keep your lettuces inside the truck. 

Revolution Roasters handles the fresh-roasted beverages, while El Sitio provides fantastic Ecuadoran specialties including empanadas and Pan de Yuca (cassava cheese bread treats). Villa Barone features familiar favorite sauces, tasty zeppolis, sometimes their own fresh mozzarella. Sara’s Produce is back in their usual space after a couple weeks off. Lost Bread Co. of Philadelphia has taken up the familiar bakery space.

Savory Bread Pudding

SAVORY BREAD PUDDING WITH MUSHROOMS AND LEEKS

Susan Mauer Lynch (YellowRoomUpstairs) Savory Bread Pudding with Mushrooms and Leeks. Start with a Sourdough Potato Bread from Lost Bread Co. (they mill their own grains!), cheese and eggs from Hillacres Pride, Leeks from Flaim or Formisano, fresh herbs from Flaim, and Mushrooms from Davidsons. Bread puddings are so variable, but this one is gorgeous and so hearty it’s perfect for the Thanksgiving table! See the full recipe and “construction” advice at Susan’s blog!

BEEF STEW WITH RED WINE (IN THE INSTANT POT)

Denine Gorniak (the bicycle-chef) Beef Stew with Red Wine in the Instant Pot. Stew meat doesn’t have to be expensive, but the cut does matter, says Denine. Pick up a good chuck roast from Hillacres Pride, Nature’s Own, or Buck Wild Bison and cut it into chunks, trimming some of the excess fat. You’ll need root veggies (carrots, onions, parsnips all available at the Market) and maybe sweet Lilly German Butter Potatoes from Savoie Organic. Mouth watering yet?

Iced Applesauce Cake.

Susan Mauer Lynch (YellowRoomUpstairs) Iced Applesauce Cake. This time of year you’ll find excellent apples at the Fruitwood Farms and the Wm Schober Sons tables. Susan suggests a crisp tart apple to make your applesauce, think Honey Crisp, Stayman Winesap, Red Delicious, and Autumn Crisp. Adding applesauce makes a moist cake and helps you reduce the fat. Find the complete recipe and instructional photos at Susan’s blog.

FEATURED ARTIST. Timothy Raines, Withywindle Woodcraft. Tim is a local artisan handcrafting all forms of woodwork. That’s the bio he provided, but it doesn’t begin to describe the beauty of the items he produces or how respectfully he honors the materials he employs.

Bag Reduction Program

Small Bills 

Many of you know, but for those of you who don’t, I carry small bills for vendors who run out of singles during the Market day.

VENDOR PARKING PERMITS

It’s good business to save the best parking spaces for SHOPPERS! Most visitors will tell you it’s tough to find parking at the Market. We make things worse by parking our own vehicles in spaces that could be used and re-used many times by shoppers. Please encourage your table crew to park for free in the Lumberyard Parking Garage (just across Collings Avenue from the west entrance). There are plenty of spaces inside, and the walk back to the Market takes 3 minutes.

New to the Market?

General information about the Market, driving directions and Market locator, plus lots of details about our programs, vendor list, and policies, are available at our website.

Collingswood Farmers’ Market Website

Flexible Site Plan

Changes will continue to occur throughout the season as vendors come and go and as we learn more about how neighbors interact. I remind you no spaces are ever guaranteed and require your cooperation if I have to move your location any given week.
