St. Paul Winter Market

Posted by librarianm0m in Area Information, Just for Fun. Tagged: , , .

Did you know that the St. Paul Farmers’ Market is open all through the winter too? Saturdays from 9 am-1 pm you can find vendors outside in the market stalls and inside of the warm Golden’s Deli. Winter market vendors sell beef, lamb, pork, chicken, turkey, duck, goose, trout, (and probably something I haven’t seen yet) as well as eggs, cheeses, honey, salsa, sauces (I personally LOVE LOVE LOVE Lucky’s sauces; we’re working through a bottle of Cherry Bomb now…), pickled veggies, mushrooms, chocolates, and more. I even picked up tomatoes last week, grown under a greenhouse covering. If you started buying meats and eggs from Bar 5, who was at the Woodbury location of the St. Paul Farmers’ Market this summer, you can find them outside at the winter market all winter long. Same with Brook Park Fish Farm, the only fish (trout) my kids will eat. And, if you still are waiting to find that perfect Christmas tree, you can find those, too, along with beautiful holiday greenery.

Real Golden Eagle!

Posted by librarianm0m in Just for Fun. Tagged: .

Living in a neighborhood filled with streets with “eagle” in the name, there can be lots of joking about just how many eagles are actually in Eagle Valley. Well, if you think you see a golden eagle on Golden Eagle Trail, you just might be right. Check out this story from Minnesota Public Radio.
