Enjoy Dinner for Two for $10 from 4 to 7 p.m.
Watch the Movie - FRESH  - from 7 to 9 p.m.

FRESH is a grassroots effort for a grassroots movement. The movie has caught on and spread like wild fire, being used all over the country as a platform to raise awareness and connecting people to the solutions available in their community.

Fresh is a great follow up to Food, Inc. Bring your neighbors and friends and join us!

Dinner & A Variety Show @ The Get Fresh Cafe

Friday, February 19, 2010

A great way to end the week! Bring the whole family!

Have Dinner for Two for $10 from 4-7 p.m. and a

Variety Show 5:30 p.m.-7 p.m.

 

Noted area storyteller and wooden boat builder, Joseph Filipowski, will
host an old fashioned 'Variety Show' at Five Point's Farmer's Market on
the evening of Friday, January 29th, 2010, beginning at 5:30PM.  'The
Coastal Virginia Organic Knot Tying and Gardening Show', will feature
performances and presentations by area residents and guests with
important messages, information and skills to share. "Always when the
vaunted structures of governance collapse, it is left to the poets and
musicians, artists and tinkers, jesters and moonlight dancers to pull
us back from the edge; or, as they have so many times before, to stick
with us, laughing, screaming and crying as we plunge headlong into
the maelstrom."

 

Please join us for the first in a series of monthly, one and a half hour
performances as we celebrate the beauty, wonder and challenges of
everyday life here, in "Coastal Virginia". You will not want to miss this
one. No cover charge but donations graciously accepted to benefit the
Farm Market, Off Base and the Tri-Neighborhood Community Garden.

Fresh This Week

NEW! 

Holistic Pet Food in bulk
$1.59 by the pound

 Fresh this Week!

With the weather up and down the East Coast being cold and snowy it has been a challenge to gather produce. We have prevailed, however!

Produce: Apples, Carrots, Celery, Potatoes (Red, White, and Sweet), Kale, Cabbage, Tomatoes, Oranges, Tangerines, Turnips and maybe local rutabagas!

The Catch Seafood has Rainbow Trout and Playoff Party Platters shaped like a football!

New Product!

On Saturday, taste Theo's Ragasse Sauce - a budding new product. (Ragasse means to enjoy life.)This sauce can be used for everything, marinating meat, chicken, mixed in hamburger, spread on hot dogs and it can also be used for salad dressing, on french fries, chips and baked potatoes. Taste it, buy it, love it!


Peace & Plenty Farm

They will be in on Saturday, weather permitting, with all of their great eggs and meats.


 

What's a 'high tunnel?'
It's a sort of greenhouse that farmers have begun using to extend their growing season into the winter months.

Also this week we have Fair Trade bananas, yellow squash, McIntosh, York and Pink Lady apples, tomatoes, cabbage, oranges, lemons, sweet potaoes, white and red potatoes, and yellow & green squash. Also -  organic Silver Dollar mushrooms, mozzorella cheese and Goat Milk!

We have a full selection of Pet Way Holistic Pet foods in the Critter Corner.

Frank, the Knife Sharpener
Frank will be setting up a permanent space in the Market this week, so he will be here for your conveince to sharpen those dull knives.


Save over a million barrels of oil! 

If each U.S. citizen ate just ONE meal a week
prepared with local produce (According to
American Farmland Trust) we could conserve
over 1.1 million barrels of oil per week.

Get Fresh Cafe Now Fully Certified!

Look for lots of new menu items, dinners to go and the return of our awesome smoked-at-the-market whole chickens, BBQ ribs, barbeque sandwiches, vegetarian selections and much more!

Our grass-fed meats:

Come by and check out our newest selection of Windhaven Farm Angus Grass Fed Beef from Windsor, Virginia!

Grass Fed meats tend to have less fat on them than industrial raised meats and therefore need to be cooked to a lower internal temperature to help prevent the meat from becoming tough during the cooking process. Also the fats in grass fed meats render (melt) at a lower temperature. For tips on how to prepare grass-fed meats try www.westwindfarm.biz. You can also ask in the café if you have any questions about cooking our pasture based meats!
