Saturday, November 20 // Gathering Around Truth

"The thing is, we do not need the poisonous “pilgrims and Indians” narrative. We do not need that illusion of past unity to actually unite people today. Instead, we can focus simply on values that apply to everybody: togetherness, generosity and gratitude. And we can make the day about what everybody wants to talk and think about anyway: the food." - Sean Sherman, The Thanksgiving Tale We Tell Is a Harmful Lie

Saturday, November 13 // Uncovering History

Why aren't we talking more about indigenous foods? To fully understand the current state of contemporary Indigenous cuisine requires an understanding of the history of Indigenous oppression, displacement and dispossession. “If you can control your food, you can control your destiny,” Sean Sherman says. “That’s the definition of food sovereignty.”

Saturday, November 6 // Indigenous Foods

Fall is a season for celebrating harvest, and it’s also a time to recognize the Indigenous foods found in our country. This month, we’re sharing facts about Indigenous heritage and food cultures, and the chefs celebrating them. Indigenous Foods – or those that are cultivated in their country of origin – have a history of close ties to seasonality and locality. These values are ones that we, as Market organizers and customers, continue to strive towards in order to support a more sustainable and nutritious food system.

Saturday, October 23 // Full Hunter's Moon

As the Native Americans prepared for the cold months ahead, they would look to October’s full moon as the signal to gather meat for winter. Because of this, the October moon came to be known as the Full Hunter’s Moon. Explore recipes and the deep history of how the sun and moon guided harvesting habits throughout history.

Saturday, October 16 // Just Getting Started

What’s in season at the farmers market in the fall? Cooler weather ushers in the fullness of fall harvest and our own willingness to turn on a stove again! Often, the number of farmers market goers begins to dwindle this time of year for one reason or another but rest assured, the produce is still plentiful - along with cheeses, meats, fish and baked goods galore! We love the simplicity of autumn's offerings just as much as the endless inspiration the season brings.
