Week 12 at the 2015 Mill City Farmers Market

July 25 was Bike to the Market Day, and there were three community booths to assist bikers and share info - pretty much anything you wanted to know about biking in the Twin Cities - Minneapolis Bike Coalition, Nice Ride MN, and Commuter Connection! Look for a separate post later this week on our Farmers Market blog.

The first SWEET CORN of the season arrived!  :D

SOLD OUT - that didn't take long!  Don't worry, Nistler Farm will have plenty more next week, plus melons.

Chef Heather Hartman shows off a bouquet of edible squash blossoms.

The beautiful work of Julie Timm - Fresh Mud Pottery.

Create Laser Arts shares a booth with Buffalo by Bike. They create laser-engraved items from high quality wood, reclaimed leather, paper and other materials, and are a recent Top of the Pantry Awards winner.

Below, Tricia Cornell, author of Minnesota Farmers Market Cookbook, was guest chef at the Mill City Cooks demo. 

Chipotle Mexican Grill treated shoppers to $5 market vouchers to spend on produce, meats, cheeses and other fresh products at the market.

The goat!
