A Toast to Opening Day at the Mill City Farmers Market
Sunday, May 4, 2025 at 1:20PM
To ring in the Mill City Farmers Market 2025 outdoor season opening day, Farmers Kitchen + Bar served up a signature cocktail they created in collaboration with MCFM - the Tipsy Carrot. It featured carrot ginger juice from Pure Ginger for You and Salted Strawberry Jam puree from Serious Jam. They also had a version sans the vodka, A Lil Carrot Kiss.
Three of the new vendors for the 2025 season deputed at the May 3rd market:
I brought home a loaf of the Multigrain Pan Loaf, which tasted as wonderful as it looks. Scroll down to see the massive Challah bread - that is next on my list. They are a fulltime vendor, so you can look forward to their fresh breads every Saturday.
I ran into a neighbor at the Market around 10:30a who said their cat loved the Pet Grass so much she had to come back and get more! Find their MCFM schedule here.
3) Enchanted Gardens of Minnesota
I couldn't resist a dozen of these beautiful eggs. They also offer honey, beeswax candles and lovely starter plants. As a fulltime vendor, find them at the Market every Saturday.

Cooking demos are back!
Below, my haul from the May 3rd Market (missing rhubarb from Mhonpaj's Garden that I handed off to a neighbor, and Atacama empanadas that I scarfed down while unpacking all these goodies...). Looking forward to baking the Amazing Brown Mix, a new offering from Janna's Gluten Free Bakery.

Finally, congrats to MCFM for being voted one of the top 3 Farmers Markets in Mpls.St.Paul Magazine's 2025 Best of the Twin Cities Readers’ Poll. :D
