Wow! Another market season has flown by and we are left with an early winter. This week there will be parsnips, dry beans (Kidney and Anasazi), Elba white potatoes, gourds, and Candy sweet onions.

Some vendors also have farm fresh eggs, with delicious homemade jams and relishes, jewelry, pretty aprons, and handmade soaps among our crafts.

Concho Farmers Market also accepts Senior and WIC FMNP checks! Checks or vouchers are $3 each and can be used to buy any fresh vegetables from participating vendors. If you have received your vouchers or know someone who has, please bring them with you to shop at our market, we are the only participating farmers market in Apache and Navajo counties. For more information on the FMNP program, please see our website.

We are now selling raffle tickets for $5.00, available at the Market Manager�s table, a drawing will be held once a month with the winner receiving an item from each vendor, and the August winner was Maya Chilcott!

We also have 2010 calendar prints for sale for $5.00 each with the proceeds going to the maintenance of our market site.
