We had a great second market day, decorated with beautiful valentine's day signs made by our purchasing coordinator, Katie Parker.

The farmers we partner with in Market Shares were fortunate in the blizzard- especially considering the devastating damages one Connecticut farm is facing. That being said, the storm as placed a burden on local farms including Wishing Stone Farm, run by Skip & Liz Paul- two of our most reliable and dedicated farmers- and we will likely see the effects in the coming weeks as they try to recover.
This is a great time to recognize the role of our shareholders' participation in BMSP because it offers local growers the security and support they need to get back on their feet.

Thank you for a fantastic first Market Day
The day was not without unforeseen challenges, but we want to thank all of you for your patience and support.
This week, we welcomed a new farmer, Steve, from NorthStar, who was extremely apologetic for arriving late. Preparing greens for 280 shares proved to be much more time-consuming than he anticipated, and he assured us that he will be on time in the future.

We're excited about our first Market Day tomorrow, February 7th, from 12-6pm in the Brown RISD Hillel. If you're a first-time shareholder, don't worry- it's really simple. Our produce is set up on tables with signs explaining how much of each item is in your share. After checking-in, you walk around the tables and hand-pick the produce- don't forget to bring a bag with you!
If you signed up for a share and did not receive the newsletter yesterday, check your spam folder. If it's not there or if you have any questions, email us at info@brownmarketshares.com.

Celeriac is scary looking, we get it. But it's also really delicious- and once you get past that hairy exterior, we think you're really going to like it. So here's this week's guide to working with some of the perhaps less familiar items in your share.

I'm a bit late on this one, but I wanted to share this email I received from Providence Mayor Angel Taveras a couple of weeks ago. It's pretty cool to live in a city where the Mayor not only supports food-related and environmental initiatives but actively propels these movements forward.
