EABA will be at the EAV Farmer's Market today 7.13! Stop by to chat with our Events Chair Liz Lootens of AtlantaPurus and our Secretary Cat Sisson of Bolst. Grab an East Atlanta t-shirt and learn about what's going on in the East Atlanta small business world. See y'all there!
Happy Tomato (Sandwich) Season!
Yessss slicing tomatoes have finally hit the EAV Farmers Market! If you're like me, you spend a few months out of the year eating 1-2 mater sammiches a day - it's *THE* snack for hot days!
I got a kick out of all the Reddit posts on this topic - I didn't realize there were so many skeptics, but also so many creative variations to suit all tastes and pantry goods on hand! The star of the show here is the tomato - and if you've never tasted an in-season, homegrown or farm-grown tomato, well boyyyyy NOW IS YOUR CHANCE! Because our farmers have 'em! Green tomatoes have been rolling in for a few weeks as well - I like this recipe for Pickled Green Tomatoes ;)
We've got a full vendor and produce list below, keep scrolling if that's what you're looking for! Some summer highlights include peaches, corn, cucumbers, squash, peppers, okra... oh my!
Today, we have live music by Nora Bonner, go see Market Chef Taylor for FREE samples and live chef demo. We've also got Ernie and volunteer Kelsey at the Kids Booth with some fun, food-ucational activities - every kiddo who participates receives a $5 token to spend on produce! How exciting!
As always, we're happy to accept and DOUBLE your SNAP/EBT $ here at market - what great deal! First-time-SNAP-shoppers get a free CFM tote + cookbook, spread the word!
With Much Love and Gratitude,
