Summer Harvest!

Stop by the Pleasantville Farmers Market this Saturday to gather delicious, fresh foods produced by our hard working growers and food artisans. The recent summer heat has produced a harvest worth celebrating -- corn, squash, berries, tomatoes, flowers and more. Take time to savor summer!

EIGHT YEARS AS
BEST OF WESTCHESTER!

The Pleasantville Farmers Market has been voted Best Of Westchester by the readers of Westchester Magazine for an 8th year in a row (2014 - 2021)! The most important aspect in our run as the Best has been the teamwork of all involved. Our farmers and food artisans, our shoppers, Pleasantville's municipal leaders and staff, the Pleasantville Chamber of Commerce, our Sponsors and Supporters, and our managers and volunteers -- all work in concert to ensure this complex event succeeds in appearing simple each week. Thanks for contributing as a shopper, enabling the Market to provide its best.

Phelps Health Tip:
Lead Sponsor Phelps Hospital Northwell Health shares the following: "Based on some estimates, vegetables supply over 50% of vitamins C and A, and much of our B6, magnesium, niacin, thiamin, and iron. Eating a variety of seasonal plant foods, which supply these and many more nutrients, can help reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease".

Market Intern Program
The Market is accepting applications from area High School students for the Intern Program. For information inquire at the Manager's Table or email info@pleasantvillefarmersmarket.org.

VENDOR HIGHLIGHTS

To celebrate their 10 year anniversary Spice Revolution is highlighting "30 new spices in 30 days" -- all July. This week they continue to roll out new spices by adding a series of salt free blends including Cajun gumbo, garlic chili, classic Italian, sichimi Togarashi and more. "New Salt free" has its own spot in their PFM-O store.

Brian Gajeski notes that Gajeski Produce will have cherry and Beefsteak tomatoes, fresh corn, blueberries, raspberries and black raspberries too.

Sure Maine has fresh seafood, and the Cape too. If you're taking a beating looking at others Facebook vacation shots and have a week of work ahead, remember that Pura Vida Fisheries offers just-caught, fresh seafood every week to the Market. Enjoy grilling fish, scallops, clams, oysters -- whatever you need to have a mini-vacation in the backyard.

Kiernan Farms has a 1/2 price SALE on sirloin tip steaks, this week at $10.75/lb (reg. $21.50/lb). They have discounted their pork chops too, to $12.75/lb (reg. $14.75/lb). And if you buy 5 one pound packages of ground beef at $11.75/lb, get $10.00 off the total.

Check out Mead Orchards and Wright's Farm for fresh seasonal fruits. Blueberries and cherries are at peak and Mead Orchards reports they will have plums too.

Kyle Nisonger or Maple View Farm says, "Our favorite salad this time of year on the farm is a Greek one – cucumber, tomatoes, fresh garlic and onions, oregano, and some feta from Edgwick Farm. You can get all of these at our stand… and make a very short walk across the Market for the feta".

In addition to their line of cheeses, Chaseholm Farm Creamery has 1/2 gallons of their un-homogenized, 100% grass based milk, and quarts of their 100% grass based yogurt. These milk products are 25% richer in butterfat than what you find in the store -- super rich and delicious!
