Outdoor Farmers' Market
Jun 27, 2018
RFM News: June 27, 2018
The weather forecast for last Saturday called for a 70% chance of rain and we were ready to splash in puddles at a rainy market. We were prepared with our rubber boots and umbrellas but scarcely saw a drop! It makes us hesitant to mention the weather forecast for tomorrow in case we jinx it. Maybe if we talk about the weather we're NOT expecting it will do the trick.
No clouds
No rain
No wind
No snow
It's going to be gorgeous! No matter the weather, the Regina Farmers' Market guarantees a great line-up of the very best in products that are made, baked, grown, or designed in Saskatchewan. We'll be on City Square Plaza tomorrow (and every Wednesday and Saturday until October 6) from 9am-1pm.
The Garlic Garden Returns: Garlic Scapes
The Garlic Garden is back for their first market of 2018 and they're bringing fresh garlic scapes with them!
Garlic scapes are mild and sweet but they also have a very distinct garlic flavour. You can chop them and use them as you would green onions or scallions in a salad. You can also sautee them and use them with eggs, greens, pasta, or even pickle them. The garlic scape season is very short so don't miss your chance to give them a whirl.
The Garlic Garden will also have dehydrated garlic flakes, granules, and powder if you're due to stock up.
Spring Creek Garden Returns: Fresh Peas
There are few things more exciting than the arrival of fresh garden peas at the market. Spring Creek Garden will be at their first market of the year tomorrow and they're bringing some of the sweetest and freshest peas around. Trust us, you want to pick up two bags. The first one just seems to disappear!
Spring Creek Garden is also bringing baby potatoes, green and red leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, spinach, radishes, kohlrabi, and green onions. You'll find their booth on the north-west side of City Square Plaza.
Flow Reward: $5 in Market Money
If you've been diligently accumulating punches on your RFM punch card, tomorrow is a great day to cash them in!
Customers with 20 punches can redeem them tomorrow for $5 in free RFM Market Money, which can be used like cash at any RFM vendor. Find out more about our market-wide reward club by visiting the RFM Information Booth at any market or on our website.
