New
-Rising Roots Farm is back with greens.
-Trees and wreaths from Brookgreen Farm are available to order online now! They will be available for pickup at the Online Market pick up days, on either Wednesday, November 25th, or Wednesday, December 2nd. Pickup will be on Courthouse street. IFM is pleased to sell these beautiful pesticide free trees grown in Grassy Creek by Jason and Felicia Joyce of Brookgreen Farm. Proceeds of this product will go towards funding activities at the Market. Specify your pick up date when you order. You can put it in the Notes.
-ALSO, we now have 2-3 foot table top Christmas trees.
-Beef Box. Peaceful Heart Farm is offering their Everyday Beef Box for $120. You'll receive the following:
Flat Iron Steak (0.7 lb)
The best value in the case. Tender, beefy, and fast on the grill — the cut that makes a weeknight steak dinner feel like a weekend one. Sear it hard, slice it thin, and it's done in fifteen minutes.
NY Strip Steak (0.75 lb X 2 - 2 per pkg) Deep, mineral beef flavor with a fine, even grain. The cut that doesn't need a sauce, a butter baste, or a second opinion. Salt it, sear it, rest it, and let it do the talking.
Beef Tips (1.4 lb)
Uniform 1-inch cubes, cut from the chuck and tenderloin end. The workhorse of the pot: braises down soft in a Dutch oven, throws into a stir-fry in eight minutes, or becomes the base of a chili that tastes like it simmered all day (because it did).
Sirloin Tip Roast (2.84 lb)
The whole-muscle roast that feeds four to six for less than two steaks. Lean, clean, and forgiving — oven-roast it with salt and pepper, slice it thin, and you've got a Sunday dinner that looks like it took all day without actually doing.
Ground Beef (3 X 1 lb)
Coarsely ground from the chuck, with a fat ratio that keeps it juicy without making it greasy. Burgers, bolognese, taco night, meatloaf, meatballs — the one that makes "ground beef" stop feeling like a fallback and start feeling like a plan.
