I will always have a soft spot for the Morgantown Farmers Market. I think the way in which they support local farmers and local food is so important.
Another market has popped up in Star City. I don't know that I would label it a farmers market, but there are various food products I wanted to be sure to check out.
Honeycomb Farms
This is a small scale farm that raises pasture raised pork and poultry, harvests honey, and prepares locally sourced freeze-fried foods for long term storage and snacking.
I saw a strawberry shortcake ice cream bar, which was one of my favorites growing up. So it was fun to see it randomly dehydrated - along with a ton of other snacks. Why? I don't really know, but it's interesting.
Curbside Concoctions
This mobile food truck offers a variety of crepes - sweet or savory.
The one that caught my eye was s'mores. I love s'mores anything - so why not a crepe?
It was a bit messy, but topped with enough chocolate, anything can be tasty. It got a little soggy on me kinda fast, but it wasn't bad overall.
Sinful Delights - Cheesecake on a Stick
Take a frozen piece of cheesecake. Top it in something sweet and sticky. Then roll it in some toppings. That's the concept here.
I went with a piece of cheesecake topped in caramel and rolled in cocoa krispies.
There's really no way to go wrong with this. I do wish my cheesecake wasn't quite as cold as it was - it made it a little difficult to eat. And speaking of, the shape on a stick is a little awkward.
Sonia's Best Ever Baklava
Who can really turn down baklava when it claims to be best?
Sonia's Best Ever Baklava had really tasty looking baklava, so I definitely needed a container of those.
She was also selling dolmades, which are stuffed grape leaves. The baklava was fantastic, though. Super soaked in delicious syrup. No dryness here.
Stray Cat Chimmi Shack
This spot has some delicious goodies.
They're cash only but have some of the most delicious chimmis! I went for a chicken one, which did take some time because they're made to order. A delicious crisp exterior, tender interior and acidic pickled radish and salsa to go with.
This was my favorite find of the day, by far. And, I've been stalking to them occasionally to see when they'll pop up again.
Here are some snaps of the other vendors available that day.
