Post-Market Update


Good Evening,

The Farmers' Market season has just ended. We had our first "free" weekend in almost six months, but now -- we're ready to get back to work!

So what are we doing?

Well, very soon our new and improved website will be up and running. (Thanks, Adam!) This means that we will re-establish our regular blog posts and recipes. And we'll soon have our online store up and running!

What else? We are working to get our products into stores and restaurants. (If you know of a place where you would love to see our stuff, please send us a note.)
And, soon, you will be able to sign up for updates directly from folkfoods.com!

Thank you for making this past year our most successful season yet! The best compliment you can give us is telling others about FolkFoods...

Eat Well!
Jason, Shana and Micah Baer

First Burlington Farmers' Market a Success!

Despite the rain, we had a wonderful time, and were excited to see so many people come out and support the market. Of course, we forgot our camera, so we'll post some pictures from next week's market.

People were real excited that we had packaged products to sell... our Veggie Patties and Veggie Crumble are back! (and of course, we have the Master Sauce!!)

Also, here's a cool video that ran on our local news about the market; you can see our booth in the background around 1:40

See you next weekend!

See You Tomorrow, With Product!!!



Saturday, May 9, City Hall Park
Burlington, VT
8:30am - 2:00 pm
The Burlington Farmers' Market!!

Well, this blog has been pretty silent for a long time. We've been busy. Our apologies.
But there is LOTS of activity ahead. We've got a lot of new recipes to post. We will soon have an active and updated website where this blog and other information will be found. Saturday farmers' markets begin tomorrow. Our production has worked 99% of the kinks out. Our boy, Micah, turned ONE in March, and now loves our Patties! We did a test run, making tons of sandwiches for our friends last weekend; all of our equipment is primed and ready (and the sandwiches were excellent!) We have a new friend, Brittany, helping us out; come on by and say hi! We are prepped, we are excited, and, well, we're tired.

So, hopefully, we'll see you tomorrow, and other Saturdays as well. Oh yeah, just to make sure that we are really clear...

WE WILL, ONCE AGAIN, HAVE VEGGIE PATTIES AND VEGGIE CRUMBLE TO SELL IN PACKAGES! (AND, AS ALWAYS, LOTS OF MASTER SAUCE!)

(Micah's gotten a lot bigger, you'll see!)

More to Come...

Happy Winter Everyone!

We have been quite absent from the blog world. It has been a crazy year and we are working hard to get everything up and ready for May's Farmers' Market.

We have a ton of new recipes coming; we are working on getting all of our products ready to be packaged and sold at market and at stores; we are getting ready for our son's first birthday; and we are preparing for some new FolkFoods adventures.

Everything will be coming along shortly. One thing to note, however, is that we will likely be moving this blog to our website, which is being constructed as we speak. But more on that as it develops. Until then, you can take a peak at our label's new look and bookmark our website at:
www.folkfoods.com

We'll see you soon!
