Special Day at Bounty of the Barrens Market

We feel like every market day is special, but tomorrow's version is even more special. In celebration of National Farmers Market Week, we are also celebrating our local market. All of the vendors you know and love will be there with their bountiful selections of locally grown produce and locally crafted goods., but there is more.

You can come hungry because the Tubbs family will be running the food tent and they are doing biscuits, gravy, sausage, and jelly! Yummm! Then, at about 9:00 Julie Ann Williams will sing the National Anthem, kicking off a brief program of remarks from local elected officials and dignitaries. We are so proud to have them recognizing the value that BOTBM is bringing to Glasgow's economy!

Right after the remarks we have another treat. The Song Farmers will be setting up (is there a more appropriately named group?) to deliver a morning full of their unique bluegrass/rock-a-billy/blues sound, developed right here in our region.

Even the weather forecast promises a special day for us! Come on out and participate. Creating a robust local food economy is not a spectator sport!

Jammin' at George J's Tonight

Eric Albany will be our performer at Jammin' at George J's on the Square in downtown Glasgow tonight. Eric performed earlier in the year and the crowd had a great time. Eric sings and accompanies himself with acoustic guitar. He performs an interesting and eclectic set of country,rock and blues. Eric is a really talented and seasoned performer who I'm sure you'll enjoy.
Also, George J's has a great menu for this event - perfect for a summer Friday evening.

The doors open at 6:00 and music starts at 7:00. Eric will be playing past 9:00. There is a $3 musician/cover charge at the door.

Come on out, meet your friends and enjoy good food and entertainment on the square in Glasgow tonight!

This event is co-sponsored by Sustainable Glasgow.

July 24 at Bounty of the Barrens Market

Tomorrow's market will be extra special! All of the vendors you know and love will be there and this time of year the crops are the most bountiful. There will be lots of everything fresh and local and good. Tambra Cambron and her family will be providing original local music AND we will get a preview of the upcoming production of High School Musical 2 from our talented local youth involved in the upcoming show. The fine folks from T.J. Samson Hospital will be showing us what real chefs can do in the cooking tent. Where else would anyone want to be on a Saturday morning in Glasgow? See you there!

July 17 Version of Bounty of the Barrens Market

Tomorrow's market might get a little wet, if the weather man is correct, but, well, it is summer time! Come on out and get wet at our Bounty of the Barrens...Water Park! We are getting into the time of year when tons of produce is available. There will be tomatoes, corn, beans, and all of the things you have come to expect at the market. AND, this week we have been assured by Jackson's Orchard that they will be there with PEACHES!!

The food tent will be dishing out fabulous breakfast wraps by our own divine chef, Father Suzanne. The music will be very special as Holly Alexander and Jackie Benningfield bring us some classical pieces for flute and violin.

We can't think of any reason why you would not be there on Saturday morning!

Local Food and Local Music on the Glasgow Square Friday Night
