Good morning!
We will be running our 406Farmsteads Saturday morning curbside pickup at Paradise Falls/Zootown Church (online orders only) and we will also be set up at the Clark Fork River Market this weekend (if you didn't order online and plan on shopping the market.) After moving from the Missoula Farmer's Market to the Clark Fork River Market to help establish and grow a new meat/dairy/produce market and being one of the original market vendors, we've had the same market spot for the last 16 years. Our friends and supporters know exactly where to find us.
This year, the CFRM will be moving vendors around to keep shoppers moving in a one way in, one way out format. We are not sure where we will be set up yet but you can look for our beautiful handcrafted wooden sign, blue and white umbrellas, blue tablecloth and of course, our gorgeous display of fresh local goodness. We will do our best to update you on our market location on Saturday. Highland Natural Produce and Grogan's West Acres will also be set up.♥️Due to MCHD directives, only produce/veggie + agriculture vendors are allowed at this time so the market will not be at full capacity and we believe it will be easy to find us!! We also ask for your patience since there will only be one person handling produce transactions and one person handling payment OR there will only be one person at our booth doing both tasks and will need time to switch out gloves/sanitize hands between transactions. Thank you for understanding. The CFRM is doing their best to adhere to MCHD directives so that we can hopefully reopen to full capacity when the time comes. Thank you for coming down to support local agriculture.🙌
If you want to support any non-ag vendors who cannot set up right now, you can order curbside pickup through both the Clark Fork River Market and Missoula Farmer's Market site if you know which market they usually set up at. Many food vendors are setting up their food trucks around town.
We appreciate each and everyone of you who have supported us for the last 16 years, who have shared our 406Farmsteads online link, who have placed an order, and who support us with your friendship, referrals, and support in every way. We are grateful for your ability to pivot alongside us as we make our way through yet another unpredictable market season. We will be up at Seeley Lake on Sundays beginning June 21st if not sooner. One thing is certain, the community support for supporting local is so abundant and we see it grow year after year. Thank you MisSOULa and Seeley Lake! We look forward to seeing you on Saturday either at Paradise Falls or at the Clark Fork River Market. Have a wonderful and safe Memorial Day weekend.♥️
With immense gratitude,
Jesse & Chuad Johnson,
Our three kiddos, and two pups🐾
