Let’s see what the intrepid vendors at the Starr Hill Market have this week. Blissful Blends are expanding their smoothie menu to include simple cakes, and tea, and Eden’s Table is also widening their bakery selections. Aspire farm is hanging in there in spite of the local severe drought and heat. It’s been a tough year so far. For fortification when you need quick energy try the RVP bars. Read in the Market Central newsletter about how these bars powered the producer to run a marathon between two volcanoes in Bali! Scroll down to the RVP Bar article by Tim Rupnarain. Rum Punch will be there for your Sunday Jamaican brunch/lunch treat. Crepes from Bomonti are available for a traditional brunch choice, or try a more elaborate plate from Afrika Moto Cuisine for Congolese flavors. Try the skin care products from Golden Goods. Now that the rain has returned, so have the mosquitos. Try their insect repellent skin balm or the oils and butters to recover from sun exposure. Enjoy the ambiance under the trees and join in on a lawn game (most likely Molkky, a Finnish lawn game) that regularly takes place at the Starr Hill Market. I’ll be sipping tea from Philosopher’s Tea and enjoying the morning.
See you there!
