<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The North City Farmers' Market is back in business for the 2016 and set to open on Saturday, June 4th from 10am - 12pm! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While we are excited to be back, we do have a few changes to let you know about.<u> <b>This year, the market will be held one block east in the 13th Street Community Garden from 10am - 12pm</b>.</u> You'll find the garden at the intersection of N 13th Street and Montgomery. While you may not be as familiar with the garden as you think, they've been growing food for the market since 2010 and are excited to host us this season. You'll get an up close and personal look at where your produce comes from and how it's harvested!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Other vendors this season besides the garden will include City Seeds Urban Farm (part of Gateway Greening), The Burning Kumquat, Andrea Berry, 37 Chocolate Street, Beaucoup Creek Honey, and City House Country Mouse.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We'll also be working in regular cooking demos, nutrition education, and health screenings to make sure we promote health all the way around for our visitors. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We're taking a step back this year as we work to build capacity for an even bigger and better market in the future. We hope you enjoy this new "farm stand" style of market hosted in the garden and we are looking forward to seeing you on Saturday, June 4th!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This long, serpentine squash is cousin to the zucchini and quite versatile in the kitchen. They have a slight, nutty artichoke flavor and hold up better than most squashes when cooking. From chopping up into a salad, adding to soups, and creating a saute, you really can't go wrong.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's a few recipes for you try at home after you pick up a squash at the market:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Italian Trombetta Tomato Saute</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6 to 8 cups Trombetta Squash,peeled and chopped</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 onion,medium dice</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4 medium fresh tomatoes, peeled and diced with juice</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 tablespoon olive oil</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped fine</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 clove garlic, minced</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Salt and Pepper to taste</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Add olive oil to a hot skillet, after oil is hot, saute squash and onion until onion is clear, add garlic and fresh tomatoes with juice ,cook covered for 5 minutes on low heat. Uncover and add oregano salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the dish before serving.
Option: If Trombetta Squash is not available, try Yellow Summer Squash or Zucchini</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Pickled Summer Squash</b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1/4 cup salt</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 1/2 pounds young yellow squash and zucchini, sliced into rounds</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 small onions, thinly sliced</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 1/4 cups white sugar</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 cups distilled white vinegar</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 teaspoons mustard seed</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 teaspoon ground turmeric</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 teaspoon celery seed</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<b>Directions</b></span> <div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In a large non-aluminum pot, combine the squash, bell pepper, and onions. Cover with salt, and let stand for 2 hours to release the liquids. Stir occasionally.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just before the 2 hours are up, combine the sugar, vinegar, mustard seed, turmeric and celery seed in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Drain the salty liquid from the vegetables. Pour the spice brine over the vegetables, and let stand for 2 more hours.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bring to a boil once again, and simmer for about 5 minutes. Ladle into 1 pint sterile jars, filling with the liquid to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe rims with a clean towel, and run a thin spatula around the inside of the jar to remove air bubbles. Seal with lids and rings. Process for 10 minutes in a simmering water bath to seal completely.</span><br />

Thanks to Gateway Greening, we were able to host Danielle from Operation Food Search as she demonstrated an easy, healthy, and delicious recipe to garden visitors. The demo connected the healthy food you see each week at the market to the beds where we grow our vegetables here in Old North.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Danielle came prepared with all the ingredients for Summer Greens Slaw with Peanut Dressing. This tangy and nutrient-rich dish is the perfect use of summer and fall greens, readily available at farmers markets across the area. Though Danielle chose kale for her demo, the dish could be made with collard greens, chard, or even sweet potato greens!</div>
<div>

We need to earn $750 by this Friday August 15th to reach our Indiegogo Campaign Goal. <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/snap-2-it-double-bucks-program-for-food-stamps" target="_blank">SNAP 2 IT</a> will help North City Farmers' Market patrons using EBT or Food Stamps increase their spending power. This will benefit patrons who've found the cost of produce to be inhibiting and it will benefit our vendors who will enjoy more revenue and more visitors to the North City Farmers' Market.<br />
<br />
How it works: If a patron comes to the market with their EBT card and asks for money to spend at the market, we will immediately double that amount! So if a patron asks for $10 in EBT coins they will receive an additional $10 to be spent at the market. This program has been in operation for only a few years but has been enormously successful at markets in <a href="http://beansandgreens.org/" target="_blank">Kansas City</a> and <a href="http://doubleupfoodbucks.org/about" target="_blank">Detroit</a>, helping low-income shoppers gain access to healthy and affordable fruits and vegetables and helping markets grow and expand. In just a few years the Beans and Greens program in Kansas City grew from 2 markets taking SNAP to over $150,000 in double bucks at 15 markets!<br />
<br />
Your support will help our market grow and it will help many residents of Old North gain improved access to fresh and healthy food at an affordable price. Go to <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/snap-2-it-double-bucks-program-for-food-stamps" target="_blank">SNAP 2 IT! Double bucks program for food stamps</a> to donate and learn more. And remember, the market has 10 more Saturdays for you to come and get some delicious food, from 10 to 1 right on Crown Square!<br />

<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-loqEa4I72Dc/U8f3JzAG2VI/AAAAAAAAAnc/bqZ5JB9fEVU/s1600/NCFM+072713_+154.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-loqEa4I72Dc/U8f3JzAG2VI/AAAAAAAAAnc/bqZ5JB9fEVU/s1600/NCFM+072713_+154.jpg" height="239" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
While the North City Farmers' Market prides itself on providing healthy produce at affordable prices, many of our patrons on SNAP (Food Stamps) still find the cost of fresh fruits and vegetables prohibitive. In an effort to address this, we've partnered with many other regional farmers' markets and Saint Louis University's Department of Nutrition and Dietetics to bring a unique concept called <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/snap-2-it-double-bucks-program-for-food-stamps#home" target="_blank">Double Bucks</a> to the North City Farmers' Market.<br />
<br />
Currently, our market has an EBT machine so our low-income shoppers can spend their food stamps at our vendors' booths. A patron comes to the information booth, runs their card through the machine, and is given coins to be spent at the market. The coins can be used at any market day, so if a person does not spend them all in one day, they can come back and spend them the following Saturday.<br />
<br />
Here's how Double Bucks works: A patron using SNAP (food stamps) comes to the North City Farmers' Market and runs their card through the EBT machine. Let's say they run their card for $10. Under Double Bucks, they immediately receive an additional $10, thus doubling their purchasing power at the market!<br />
<br />
This is not an experimental concept. Double Bucks programs exist throughout the United States: <a href="http://beansandgreens.org/" target="_blank">Beans and Greens</a> and <a href="http://www.doubleupfoodbucks.org/" target="_blank">Double Up Food Bucks</a>. By bringing this to the North City Farmers' Market, the shopper will be able to purchase more fresh fruits and vegetables and the vendor will see an increase in sales. Everybody wins.<br />

In order to sustain the Double Bucks program in St. Louis, we've created an Indiegogo campaign to help us fund this new endeavor. Please, if you can show your support, donate here at <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/snap-2-it-double-bucks-program-for-food-stamps#home" target="_blank">Snap 2 It!</a> Help us reach our goal of $3,000 by August 15th!<br />

We are the only farmers' market in north city. Whether you live in Old North, St. Louis Place, Hyde Park, or even Downtown, the North City Farmers' Market is conveniently located with easy access to major roads.<br />
<br />

<br />
2. Our prices are good. You can get a whole bushel of collard greens for less than a dollar!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tV4hZD0QU9o/U7V50pJvLXI/AAAAAAAAAls/2E9ntmYVroo/s1600/NCFM_092813+003a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tV4hZD0QU9o/U7V50pJvLXI/AAAAAAAAAls/2E9ntmYVroo/s1600/NCFM_092813+003a.jpg" height="145" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
3. There's a strong sense of community here. This is not just a place to buy food; it's a place to talk with neighbors, hang out, listen to music, give the kids a chance to play, and have fun.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XhqjoVy8wmY/U7V5l7feXcI/AAAAAAAAAlk/Qn5tRqUs3Nc/s1600/NCFM+Opening+111.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XhqjoVy8wmY/U7V5l7feXcI/AAAAAAAAAlk/Qn5tRqUs3Nc/s1600/NCFM+Opening+111.jpg" height="239" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
4. We have the best view of any market in the region. With the arch in the background, the beautifully restored Crown Square in the foreground, it can't get much better than this.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VdMY7rK7gyM/U7V1LK7rwHI/AAAAAAAAAlc/UtAG06_FBO8/s1600/IMG_9261.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VdMY7rK7gyM/U7V1LK7rwHI/AAAAAAAAAlc/UtAG06_FBO8/s1600/IMG_9261.jpg" height="213" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
5. We have a dancing carrot! Iris, a local resident and regular attendant of the market, happily greets patrons and entices the Crown Candy line to come and explore.<br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Opening day started out gorgeous, if a little cloudy. As far as markets go, North City's arguably has the best view in St. Louis nestled between newly restored beautiful brick buildings, with a commanding view of the Gateway Arch.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many neighbors, young and old, came to buy some fresh goodies. The farmers' market is more than just a place to buy healthy and affordable food, it's also a place to bring the family, hang out, and listen to some local music. Every Saturday is a mini festival.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We also have as many as 20 vendors a week, selling greens, pastries, bread, and flowers. This year we even have seeds and starters from City House Country Mouse, who is new with us this year.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Unfortunately, we had to close a little early. As this photo clearly shows, we got a light drizzling on opening day. In the future, on rainy days, markets will be held inside the Old North St. Louis Restoration Group's office at 2700 North 14th Street, just south of the usual market space.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Day 2, June 14th, was much sunnier and warmer. We even had hula hooping lessons. Energizing Enterprises will be with us every Saturday, selling hula hoops to help you stay fit!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our local neighborhood coffee shop, <a href="http://www.lamanchacoffeehouse.com/" target="_blank">La Mancha Coffeehouse</a>, will be selling pastries and beverages every Saturday, as well.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope you are as excited as I am about our first day of the North City Farmers' Market. Whether it's the warm weather, lots of fresh and local fruits and veggies, or simply chatting with neighbors, the market is always a blast. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For our first market of the season we are pleased to announce live music from the Confluence Academy Choir, face-painting for the little ones (or people of any age!), 8 produce vendors and a handful of craft vendors! Want to work up some sweat? We'll even have hula hoop classes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The weather forecast predicts 84 degrees (perfect temperature for hanging out outside, in my opinion) and a chance of rain. A little bit of rain never hurts. In fact, it'll clean your veggies for you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Remember: 10AM-1PM on North 14th Street right across from Crown Candy Kitchen. SNAP and EBT accepted. See you on the square!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The North City Farmers’ Market has been going strong for thirteen
weeks now and we are excited for the time remaining! For much of the summer we
have enjoyed great musical acts and increasing new customers to the market. We
hope to continue this success in September and October.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In addition to changing seasons, we are
excited to unveil a new series on our blog site titled “Vendor Profile.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Vendor Profile” will be a series of blog posts that
specifically describes and informs readers about our wonderful vendors at North
City Farmers’ Market. A huge part of our success at the market is due to loyal
vendors who contribute to our mission of improving community health in Old
North. We hope “Vendor Profile” can provide insightful information about some
of the popular merchants while also attracting new customers to the market!<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Our kids had a blast this week with our free summer kids' activities! On Wednesday, we partnered up with the Northside Workshop for a fun and easy arts and craft activity. We made planters out of recycled materials. On top of that each child was given a free admission pass to the St. Louis Magic House! What a great way to end the day! I encourage you if you have not already to bring your children out to the festivities! Our last week of activities will be next week. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">If you have any questions, feel free to contact the office (314) 241-5031</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">On to the tasty things...We've been seeing a lot of red at the market lately. I wonder if anyone knows what I'm talking about. You guessed right. Tomatoes! Yummy. I remember when my grandma would slice me up some fresh tomatoes and sprinkle it with a dash of salt and pepper. I loved it! Then, as I got older and realized that they came in the size of grapes, Oh boy!! </span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I hope your summer is going fantastic! Mine surely is. I recently just got back from Nation's capitol, Washington D.C. for my sorority 51'st National Convention and it was soooo much fun! I had a blast, but I was also very busy being that I was the primary representative for my chapter. We pigged out on lots of goodies including a landmark restaurant called Ben's Chili Bowl. However, in the midst of all the chaos and excitement, I honestly could not wait to return! </span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mission: RELAXATION is in full effect this week for me and it will be kicked off with participating in the FREE Yoga class being offered weekly at Old North St. Louis Restoration Group for neighborhood youth.

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hey everyone! My name is Jazmin Richardson. I am the new summer intern with Old North St. Louis Restoration Group. I am studying Nursing at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and will be serving as an intern with Old North St. Louis Restoration Group for the duration of the summer. My goal this summer is to provide you all with some great nutritious recipes that can be paired with the produce sold weekly at North City's Farmers Market. I also will be providing healthy living strategies as well. </span></span></div>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I <span style="color: red;">LOVE, LOVE, LOVE</span> Golden Girls! It's my favorite show! My favorite character is Sophia because she reminds me so much of my own grandmother. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm absolutely in love with Blue Bell Homemade Icecream. It's not sold in St. Louis, so unfortunately me and it will be departed for a while. :-(</span></span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I once cut my toe running from a fly and had to get 28 stitches. Yikes, I know. </span></span></li>
