Farmer's Market Heading to Cedar Lane!

“On the Road Again!"

Historic Sotterley heading to Leonardtown!

 

In an effort to continue our community outreach through the Historic Sotterley “Growing for Good” program, our Farmer's Market is heading to a new location - the Cedar Lane Senior Living Community at 22680 Cedar Lane Court in Leonardtown. On Wednesdays beginning on June 26th and running through September 25th from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., we will have fresh in-season produce, eggs, local honey, and more.

 

Over the last five years, the Historic Sotterley “Growing for Good” program has donated over 50,000 pounds of produce to local food pantries. Now the program has yielded an opportunity to set up a weekly Farmer’s Market to sell fresh produce at the Cedar Lane Senior Living Community.

 

“Our friends at Cedar Lane have graciously invited us to set up a mobile farm stand to serve the valued seniors in our community, many of whom are unable to make it out to the local markets,” stated Historic Sotterley’s Executive Director, Nancy Easterling. “We are able to accept payments under the WIC and Senior Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program. This is truly a wonderful opportunity for all of us!”

On the Road Again!

Once again, the Historic Sotterley Farmer’s Market is “Going on the Road” on Saturday, May 18th from 9 am—1 pm to the Tobacco Barn Distillery, an 1830’s historic tobacco barn located at 24460 Hollywood Road in Hollywood, MD … less than 4 miles from us and just across the street from Gatton’s Barbershop. With the history, great food from our farmers and watermen, as well as a convenient place to shop, we invite you to come on by!

The Historic Sotterley Farmer’s Market at the Tobacco Barn Distillery will include local farm raised oysters, honey, Shiitake mushrooms, NEW aquaponic grown lettuce, eggs, microgreens, private labelled aged balsamic and extra virgin olive oils, and local bourbon, whiskies and rum. There will also be limited quantities of jumbo lump crab cakes and crab cake dinners from the World Famous Faidley’s Seafood in Baltimore, as well as filets, NY strip, and prime rib from Maryland’s premier dry aged, pasture fed Angus farm.

For those looking to take a “Rickhouse Tour” that afternoon, sign-ups will be available for tours at 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00 p.m. Tours are limited to eight people and take about an hour. $30 fee includes a laser etched Glencairn tasting glass.
