See Montevallo Farmers' Market on the LocalHarvest Website!

Montevallo Farmers' Market is now added to LocalHarvest's website at http://www.localharvest.org/montevallo-farmers-market-M47039?ul.  It's a great spot to read about other markets and to see the full list of produce and other items available during our market's season.  Even though our 2011 season is complete, we're planning for the market's reprise during our Fall Market on Saturday, October 15.  You'll see several of our summer season growers with fall produce and added to the line up will be some arts and crafts vendors.  With a beautiful fall Saturday, you'll get the day started by seeing your farmer friends and doing some shopping!  Be sure to save the date!

News for End of Season Events

Cheeky Maiden is coming to the Montevallo Farmers' Market 7/25 and 8/8.  The products will spoil you and your family.  Shop Cheeky Maiden and see what you've been missing! 

Dallas Perry Band is playing at the 7/25 market.  This band is making a name for themselves!  Come shop and enjoy their music at the market on the lot behind 1st Baptist Church.

Ninna Morris Gamble grew up in Pea Ridge and plays for and sings with a quartet from her church, Reno Baptist, in west Jefferson County.  The quartet enjoys performing at community events and retirement communities.  Because they got their start singing at nursing homes, they call themselves The Nursing Home Quartet.  They sing Southern Gospel music and promise that you'll hear your favorites on 8/8 when they sing for the Montevallo Farmers' Market.

Blueberries, blueberries, and more blueberries!

The blueberry grower called today to say that the berries are coming in fast!  He has over 40 gallons picked and ready!  Usual price is $6 a quart.  He's selling them for $20 a gallon, but needs to know that you want him to bring them to Montevallo Market on Monday 7/11.  Call David Nichols 334-683-4029 to order your blueberries for Monday.  Add them to your morning cereal, a salad, or pancake batter.  Freeze them to enjoy this winter.  These berries are beautiful and the season will be gone before you know it!

Music at the Market July 18 and July 25

July 18 the Montevallo Farmers' Market will welcome The Final Fight, a band featuring Oliver Stansell on vocals with Ryan Brown and Austin Jones.  This will be their first performance, so come see these guys get their start!

July 25 Dallas Perry Band will play for market goers.  This is the band that will open for Dakota Jennings at Brierfield Park on August 27th at the "Bikers Rebuilding Alabama" event to raise money for the Salvation Army for disaster relief. 

Lula B's Frozen Yogurt for an After Market Treat!

Our market operates on Mondays 3-6 pm. and the summer heat takes a toll on shoppers!  Many have found the perfect way to cool off is to stop at Lula B's for frozen yogurt or sorbet when they leave the market.  Market will be closed on Monday, July 4, but Lula B's will be open.  When you need a break from barbecue, chill with yogurt for the holiday!  The holiday sorbet flavor will be watermelon.  Who can resist that flavor on the 4th?

Montevallo's Monday Market will resume on July 11 and continue on Mondays each week thru August 8.
