Ascension joins the Food Faith and Farming Network in offering this opportunity to support local farmers during the winter. Food Faith and Farming Network partners with Harvest of Hope Fund to support farmers in crisis. This market is a small way to uplift local farmers and raise awareness. The market is free and open to guests and will feature eggs, salsa, mushrooms, soaps, preserves, rustic breads, pastries, sweet breads, honey, apples, syrups, cider, oats, granola, wool products, and our own Meru coffee. Please bring reusable bags (or purchase an Ascension bag) and cash for shopping at the market.
In addition to the market, we will host a farm to table brunch made of locally sourced ingredients: cheesy egg bake, sausage, spinach salad with maple vinaigrette, apple oatmeal bake, cider and beverages. he market is free but there is a charge for the brunch. Tickets are available after services or online at https://tinyurl.com/DonateAscension. Tickets are available in the narthex the weeks leading up to the brunch with a limited number available at the door. Buying in advance guarantees your seat at the brunch. Tickets for the brunch are $12/adults, $8/senior, $5/kid (4-10, under 4 free). $30 maximum per family.
