No Markets August 13 &16, New Bread

August 10th, 2008 by dave

Hello,

   Heads up.  We will not be at market this week.  Papa Sparrow is having his 60th birthday and so we must fly to his party.  We will be baking bread for the store.  Delivery this week will be on Tuesday afternoon instead of Wednesday. 

  We have a new bread at the markets and I hope you try it.  Its called “Heirloom Grit.”  This bread was designed to feature the 9th Generation Heirloom Corn being grown by Peacefull Valley Farm right here in Old Fort, NC.  Many researchers believe it to be the oldest corn in the southeasern U.S.  Cooked grits are folded into a germ-rich levain dough.  The bread is then rolled in coarse grits.    Its very very good.  Please come visit us at the Asheville City Market or the North Asheville Tailgate Market and try it.

3 Cheers.  Ahoy- your baker
