Vendor Spotlight: Spring Valley Farm and Orchard
This week’s vendor spotlight has been with Field to Table for 15 years!
Spring Valley Farm and Orchard is located in the rolling hills and valleys of Augusta, WV. Owners, Eli and Misty Cook manage their 800 acre farm with the fundamentals of Integrated Pest Management and sustainable agriculture. A family operated business and hands on approach ensure every product going to their markets is handled with care from the field -- to the packing shed -- and ultimately to market.
Their favorite part of the market is being able to provide fresh, local fruits and vegetables to our customers and see all of the smiling faces from week to week.
Find all of your favorite seasonal produce at Spring Valley Farm and Orchard. Their customer favorites include… Peaches, tomatoes, sweet corn, salad greens!
Connect with Spring Valley Farm and Orchard on their Instagram or Facebook! Subscribe to their newsletter here!

Weekly Scavenger Hunt Activity!
Each week, we post a challenge for you all to find chalk drawings of fruits or veggies scattered around the market. Find all of them, and come to the market table for a stamp on your punch card (provided there). Once you get 6 stamps (you get one per week), you get a prize!
The weekly challenge will be posted in the newsletter and Instagram, which can be found, here!

Field to Table had an amazing time at AFAC’s Empty Bowls event on Sunday!
