The public is invited to enjoy a taste of “all things Irish” on Saturday March 15 between 9 am and 12 noon at the Greensboro Farmers Market (501 Yanceyville Street) located at the corner of Yanceyville and Lindsay Avenue, across from the War Memorial Stadium.
Chef Brendan, (he’s Irish) of the nearby downtown restaurant The Worx will be cooking up Irish Stew made with Massey Creek Farm’s pasture raised lamb, accompanied by Irish Soda Bread baked by Alex Amoroso of Cheesecakes By Alex. Free samples will be available while they last.
The Greensboro Farmers Market has organized a fun self-guided scavenger hunt for kids 12 and under to find (one of four) four leaf clovers hidden among the market to win a sweet shamrock shaped cookie prize from Babycakes Sweets.
Adults can try their luck to win a basket raffle full of local goodness-Celtic soap, gift certificates, handmade green note cards, and more.
Market vendors will have an array of produce and products to purchase and make your own St. Patrick’s Day feast including sausage from Meadows Farm for “bangers and mash” as well as brisket cuts, beef from Rothschild Farms, lamb from Massey Creek, and several others as well as produce across the market including Piedmont grown cabbage, greens, carrots, seasonings…all locally grown and raised.
