Black Radish Creamery and North Country Charcuterie are finalists for the 2023 Good Food Awards, an annual event that celebrates outstanding American craft food producers. Award categories range from cheese, coffee and charcuterie to preserves, snacks and spirits. In the cheese category, Black Radish is a 2023 finalist for its raclette and Bandit Red cheddar. Meanwhile, North Country is up for an award in the charcuterie section for its wagyu beef bacon. Both artisans are no strangers to the Good Food Awards. Last year, North Country won for its herbed wagyu bresaola, and Black Radish is a three-time Good Food winner for its fruit preserves. Winners of the 2023 awards will be announced at a ceremony on April 21 in Portland, Oregon.

Winter Produce Spotlight
Butternut squash has a long shelf life, is full of fiber, and can be used in sweet and savory dishes! Check https://buff.ly/3Vc56Zs for recipe inspiration. If you shop with SNAP/EBT, you can get free fruits and vegetables at participating locations https://buff.ly/3ekv9On
Microgreens and sprouts are full of potassium, iron, zinc, magnesium, copper, and antioxidants. They are more nutrient dense than the same amount of their mature counterparts. And they can grow on your windowsill in winter. Check out https://buff.ly/3jNxmVq to learn how.
Mushrooms are in season this winter in Ohio. They are a great source of fiber, protein, and B vitamins. If you shop with SNAP/EBT, you can get FREE mushrooms at participating locations. https://buff.ly/2Gb3aMS
Did you know that carrots harvested in winter are sweeter than carrots harvested in summer or fall? Carrots and other cold-hardy vegetables convert starches to sugars to protect themselves from freezing. Check out this article from the Washington Post for more information about this fun fact: https://buff.ly/3HdVESa
Potatoes can grow in space, and weather tough conditions. They store well and may be available through winter months at farmers markets! If you shop with SNAP/EBT, you could get free potatoes! Check our website for participating locations, https://buff.ly/3ekv9On, and this article for more fun facts about space tubers https://buff.ly/3FzLDfJ

We have farm fresh eggs from our flock and will be at the Worthington Farmers Market on Saturday morning.
It’s the perfect day for a cup of this warming Assam Black tea blend we call Traverse.
Find it on our website or at the @worthingtonfarmersmarket this Saturday!
Beeswax food wraps are a biodegradable, eco-friendly way to package fresh fruits and vegetables, sandwiches, and other foods. Eliminate the use of plastic wrap with these 100% cotton wraps, made with beeswax, jojoba oil, and pine rosin. We've added a few new styles of candles to our inventory, too.
When the days are gray, brighten them up with one of these delicious flavors! We’ll have these three flavors alongside all your favorites at The Worthington Farmers Market this Saturday, 9a - noon. It’s been a lifetime since we’ve seen you—come see us and tell us what you’ve been up to! Liz & Patrick
Congratulations Lorraine! This past weekend our owner, Lorraine Walker, completed her 4th Dopey Challenge at Walt Disney World where you run a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and a full marathon across 4 consecutive days. Total = 48.6 miles Talk about running goals!
Do you have something you'd like to accomplish this year? It could be big like running a crazy race or as simple as taking time each day to slow down to enjoy a cup of Silver Bridge Coffee in the morning. Whatever it is, tell us your goal!
I have a new Winter/Valentines menu available and will also have some special keto goodies for Valentines Day! Send me a message if you'd like to have one pre-ordered for your sweetheart! (Highly recommended!) Can't wait to see everyone at the Worthington Farmers Market

Thank You Aardvark Wine & Beer!
Wine tastings are here! Beginning tomorrow, we'll have a different flight of four wines (2oz each) to taste every Friday and Saturday, for $10. Come in anytime we're open on those days and sip and shop!
To kick off the first weekend flight, we're donating $5 of the $10, splitting it between The Worthington Partnership and Worthington Resource Pantry.
These are two organizations that mean dearly to us that make meaningful contributions to improve the quality of life of those in our community.
