A Minute from the Manager

Hi and Happy Holidays!

We are nearing the end of this Market’s calendar year, and I just have to tell you just how much I have been blessed to be a part of it since September 3! Getting to know the farmers, shoppers, and guests has been such a rewarding time for me. Our last day for the Market this year is December 21, but we will reopen with our winter hours on January 11, from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m.

But the good news is this: with the new year comes a new market! We are adding a significant number of new farmers, processors, and artisans, and I am plum thrilled about it! Our floor plan will be changing considerably in 2020 to accommodate the growing needs of the Market, as well as to provide you with a fun and exciting Market experience. Since I've been here, it has been such a joy getting to know our shoppers and seeing some of your faces week after week. And as with our amazing marketers, they have challenged and taught me so much and have impacted the lives of so many people. By February and the spring of 2020, we are going to be able to provide you with a truly unique shopping experience.

But as always, let me hear from you. I’d love to know your thoughts. If there are any items you’d like to see provided at the Market, give me a call at (601) 354-6573. It would be my pleasure to discuss with you the future of our one and only Mississippi Farmers Market!

With Growing Gratitude,

Lisa

Across the country, there are traditional foods that people eat at dinner for Christmas. In Mississippi, there are some particular dishes that those in other regions of the country may or may not be as likely to have at the dinner table for this festive holiday. Check out these 15 dishes that you are bound to see if you attend Christmas dinner at the home of native Mississippian! If there is something that should have made the list but didn't, feel free to tell us about it on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. We'd love to hear from you. Here are some dishes (and a beverage) that we typically consume, in addition to the obvious ham, turkey, or another meat entrée, here in Mississippi:

Meanwhile, be sure to make out your Christmas dinner list, and grab all your fresh ingredients from the Market on Saturday for those "test" meals and for the grand finale! Also, feel free to share your thoughts or what you're cooking this holiday with us on social media: Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter @msfarmersmarket. We look forward to hearing everyone's feedback about how they "do Christmas" in the kitchen! You can even use the hashtag #msfarmersmarket!
