- w Mid-Cape Farmers Market returns to Main Street By Kathleen Szmil Manwaring kmanwaring@barnstablepatriot.com YUMMY! -Jennifer Mullin,21/2, of West Barnstable,savors a fresh strawberry from Tim Friary's Cape Cod Organic Farm stand at the Farmer's Market. Jennifer was sampling the sweet berries while her mom, Dierdre, shopped nearby. Fresh, ripe strawberries. Rich, decadent cookies. Fragrant, lush flowers. Even fruity cranberry jellies. A new local restaurant, you ask? No. All of these good- ies, and more, can be found at the Mid-Cape Farmer 's Market, which enjoyed its seasonal kick- off Wednesday. Under sunny skies, the market officially opened for business at 8 a.m. in its new location at 540 Main St.. just across the street from The Carousel. This season, the market wel- comes severalnew merchants of- fering a variety of local goods. Terri Horn was paddling off the coast of Maine when she found herself craving a snack. Lost in a daydream about the fabulous oat and raisin cookies she 'd been baking for years, she suddenly felt a deep desire to share the treats with the world. That was the beginning of Kayak Cookies. Today. Horn divides her time between Washington. DC and her Cape Cod bakery, and now the farmer 's market. Visitors to Horn's welcoming little booth will find not only the previously mentioned oat and raisin cook- ies, but a chocolate version as well as ginger shortcakes , sour cream coffe e cakes, tiny straw- berry-rhubarb pies, and lemon pies. "There 's a good balance of flavors. " said Horn ot her treats. "They are bright in the mouth but not too sweet. " Horn prides herself on using the finest ingredients, many of which are from local merchants and growers. For example, the strawberries in her pies are from Tim Friary's Cape Cod Organic Farm in Cummaquid. "I just want to support everything lo- cal." she said. It was that feeling that moti- vated Horn to take part in the farmer 's market. "It' s about doing something that I love and supporting the community, " - she said. It was a similar feeling that inspired Roberta Murphy of Pain D'Avignon to join the 2006 mar- ket. "I love farmer 's markets," she said. "They are a great way to get out in the community." Visitors to the Pain D'Avignon booth won't find any muffins here. Murphy leaves the muffins to others,instead choosing to fo- cus on savory breads fresh-baked in her local shop. Choices include such temptations as Seven Grain , Cheese Bread. Calamata Olive.Cranberry Pecan, and their ever-popular Raisin Pecan. "We have the best breads in town," said Murphy. ToaccompanyPainDAvignon's scrumptious offerings , certainly the jellies from Cape Cod Cran- berry Harvest are a perfect choice. Tina Labossiere and Debbie Grenier were at a playgroup discussing a food item to bring to a gathering. When their spe- cial cranberry jellies were a hit, the women realized they might have stumbled upon something. "We started making other fla- vors and went full-time ," said Labossiere. Today the duo operate Cape Cod Cranberry Harvest from their Harwich kitchen, cooking up such lovely jellies as Cran- berry Apricot , White Cranberry Orange , White Cranberry Pep- per, and Cranberry Pepper, an especially well-loved flavor for cooking. "I use it on chicken," Grenier said. A newer addition to the line includes a lemon-lavender mar- malade made with fresh laven- der from the Lavender Farm in Brewster. "Cynthia at the farm told us about the market last year," said Tina. "But we were already booked. " The two made taking part in this year's market a prior- ity. "Once people start to hear about it, it should be a big hit." said Tina. At the opening market, Debbie delighted in discovering fellow Cape merchants. "It's neat to see the other businesses on the Cape," she said. Once your basket is overflow- ing with edible riches from the aforementioned market ven- dors, as well as Cape Cod Or- ganic Farm.The Herb Farm, and Matt's OrganicGarden, consider stopping by to learn preparation methods from Jim Miller and the rest of the gangfrom the Zammer Hospitality Group at Cape Cod Community College. "We want to provide some unique uses for the fresh pro- duce ," said Miller, noting that he and his students will dem- onstrate decorative cutting techniques and simple recipes for market-goers. Now that the food and the prep are taken care of, don't forget the table, if not the garden. The Rose Man has one oftheprettiest booths at the market , with end- less varieties of gorgeous roses in full bloom. There are English roses with their intoxicating scent, along with climbers, miniatures, and shrub roses in colors to dazzle. Proprietor Cindy Ehrenreich happily offers tips on growing and planting her beauties. "It's a nice , friendly atmosphere ," said Ehrenreich. "It's a good place to show people what we have to offer." Across the lot Kristie Kapp will sell her amazing peonies for one more week or as the grow- ing season allows. Customers can purchase full bouquets or stunning arrangements with vases included. The bright pink peonies with artemesia are par- ticularly eye-catching, and they smell great , too. If you're inthe mood for locally grown goods , floral delights , and some fun do make your way down Main Street to the Mid-Cape Farmer's Market this season. The market is open each Wednesday until September 6 from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. Bon appetit! Savory selections, local fl air Jfte e d0/ /- QP Est 1993 //"> • W WE'RE NOT JUST A CAPPUCCINO BAR!
