Autumn is here at the Farmers Market

October 4, 2019

Fall Foods to Keep for Winter 

It’s a challenge as old as time: how can I eat fresh throughout the winter? Preserving food draws out the oxygen and stops the growth of microorganisms that break down freshness.  So, with time spent now, come January or March you can open your freezer bags and jars to enjoy the fresh flavors of fall.

Our Executive Director Trudy Toliver has written a blog post about four simple ways to keep food for winter: freezing, pickling, dehydrating and canning. If you’ve never preserved food before, now is a great time to try it out! Click the button below to read more.

STORING UP FOR WINTER

Kind of a Big Dill

If you’re ready to try your hand at easy preservation methods, join us for our first ever Disco Pickle event, co-hosted by Cook First Portland and Slow Food Portland. Disco Pickle happens on October 5th and 12th at PSU and October 6th at Lents International. Swing by our pickle tasting booth at 10am to get inspired, shop the market for the produce you’d like to pickle (it doesn’t have to be cucumbers!), learn tips and tricks from our chef demo at noon, and then make your own pickles at our DIY station!

A JARRING EXPERIENCE

You Spoke, We Listened!

A huge thank you to all 1,500 and more of you who took the time to complete our Shopper Survey! We were heart-warmed to connect with so many of you throughout this process. Your treasured feedback will guide our communications and the delivery of our markets over the years to come.

Congratulations to Catherine, the winner of our Shopper Survey giveaway! She flashed a big smile when receiving a basket of market treats and tokens to buy what’s fresh. A loyal shopper at PSU, Catherine has been coming to our market since it was at its original Albers Mill location!

Though the survey is closed, we welcome your feedback anytime. If you have thoughts to share, please send us a message at contact@portlandfarmersmarket.org.

Thank you again for your time and for supporting local farmers and food producers.
