Yay!! We are so excited and want to say a BIG thank you for all your votes during the 2023 Marietta Times Reader’s Choice Awards. We were surprised and thrilled to hear that Huck’s Farm Market won 3 awards and were finalists in 3 categories! Jim and I passed out when we heard. (I’m teasing, but we are so happy!) Huck’s Farm Market is the winner for…

*Best Deli

*Best Sandwich

*Best Sub

We were finalists in the categories of Lunch, Farm Market, and Produce Store! Wahoo!

That being said….come try out our deli, sandwich shop, and produce if you haven’t already! Not to mention our bakery, grocery items, dairy items, crafts, candles, snacks, candies, chocolates, jams, jellies, canned goods, etc. I know I have said it before, but Jim and I are in 7th heaven owning Huck’s. It is just such a fun place! There really is something in here for everyone.

We are driving to Disney World on Sunday, so I won’t be able to do a newsletter next week. We haven’t been to Disney in about 10 years, so the kids are all looking forward to it. I saw my principal who just went with his family. He said they logged 28 miles over the two days they were at the parks! We do have pool days scheduled in between for rest and recovery! Ha!

Our deli specials will last two weeks. They are listed at the bottom of the newsletter.

Looking for something fun to do: Don’t forget the ice cream social at the old Reno School on Saturday at 4:00 p.m. Also, check out the castle on 4th street for a tour or the Valley Gem for a riverboat ride. If you are looking for a bigger day trip, the Ohio State Fair starts July 26 and runs through August 6. We love the Ohio State Fair! A shout out to my niece, Maddy, and Gracie Morris from our 4-h Club for qualifying with their projects at the state fair. Good luck, girls!

Here’s our weekly update for outside!

We are continuing on with the painting of the building! We now only have the back side to do, plus some staining of the sign and pergola area. It’s coming along slowly but surely!

Our mums are still growing nicely! Look for the first shipment of mums to come in late August! Our homegrown ones won’t be ready by then quite yet, but we will make sure we have lots at the beginning as well! What’s your favorite color of mum? I think you can never go wrong with the yellow, white, and orange, but I also love the purple, pink, red, and bronze as well!

Here’s our update for inside:

Produce is in its prime and is getting rave reviews by our customers. Here is what you can find….

Cantaloupe, sweet corn, cucumbers, watermelon, blackberries, blueberries, green beans, cabbage, nectarines, peaches, strawberries, tomatoes (red, yellow, and green), Roma tomatoes, hot peppers, green peppers, zucchini, and squash

We may take tomatoes grown here in Marietta for granted, but two customers this week, one from Virginia and another from Texas stopped in specifically to get Marietta tomatoes! If you haven’t tried some yet this summer, come grab a few!

We decided to get a few more new items added to our inventory! Read below to see what new items you can now find at Huck’s!

Deli: Peppered Turkey and Bacon Cheese

Candies: Old Fashioned Caramel Cremes (by the lb. or in a bag)

New types of fudge: Lemon, Birthday Cake, and Dark Chocolate Mint

Michigan Tart Cherries are coming on Wednesday, Aug 2nd! We have to pick them up around noon in Newark, so if all goes as planned, they will be ready for pick up around 4 or 5. We will put the slush packs in the cooler and the frozen cherries in our freezer if you have to wait to pick up!

One of our bakers, Beth Huck, has been adding a couple of types of cupcakes each week. Last week, she made Peanut Butter Overload and Death by Chocolate. This week she will have Birthday Cake and Carrot Cake. These are from scratch cupcakes, and they are divine! Each cupcake is $2.49 and make the perfect after lunch dessert or afternoon pick me up!

CLASS EVENTS:

Thursday, August 2: Christmas in July: Cross stitch Ornaments

We are going to be cross-stitching ornaments for Christmas. We will start them, and then you will be able to keep working on them at home. This kit includes 4 cross stitch ornaments: a deer, a Christmas tree, a cozy house, and a snowman. Check out the picture below to see what it looks like! It’s so cute! You will get everything from start to finish for this project. No need to know how to cross stitch before you come….my sister and I will teach you! Cross stitching is not only fun, but so relaxing! Cost will be $35.00. Please sign up by July 26th, so I can get the right amount ordered. The only thing you will want to bring is a little pair of scissors, but we will have some for you to borrow if you don’t!

**Also, you don’t have to be a beginner! If you love to cross-stitch or haven’t done it in forever, please join us! 

NEW! 3D Fall Leaf or Pumpkin: Date TBD but probably late August

You will have your choice of a large wooden leaf or wooden pumpkin. Added to this will be the words: Hello, Fall!, Boo!, and Thankful. You can do one set of words or more than that for an extra cost. Please specify when you are signing up, so Duffy can prepare. A fall ribbon bow and some fall flowers will be added to the top. You could hang this on your door, a wall, or propped up wherever you want to add a little pop of Fall color.

Thursday, September 21: Fall Mason Jars

This will be a set of 4 mason jars painted in fall colors with the letters F-A-L-L on them. Inside will be twinkle lights and they will be filled with faux fall foliage.

Community Plant Swap: Friday, September 22-Sunday, October 1st.

This is going to last over two weekends! Bring in a part of some of your healthy plants that need divided, and get other plants to plant in your garden! This is free, but we are asking for a canned good or non-perishable food item which will be donated to the First Church of the Nazarene’s food pantry! They get many families that come in every week in need, so this is a great way to do something nice for our community.

Would you like to book a private class for your friend group, family, church group, work group, etc.? Call in or message us, and we can get a fun class planned!
