<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">Last month on a sunny and cheerful Monday afternoon we met up with the entire Gaytan Family at their farm fields in Chino. We were greeted with much enthusiasm from Edelmira, Albertano, and their four children (and little fluffy dog!) to show us around and point out the new crops in the ground. Jeronimo Diaz, who works the Gaytan stand every Sunday at the market, even came by with his wife and two sons to help guide us on an extraordinary farm journey. In Chino we took a look at the beautiful artichokes popping up and row after row of fresh green onions, broccoli, and a variety of red and green leaf lettuces. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">We even got to pick and taste the delicious crop of new strawberries ripening. It was quite an experience to see the strawberries in the fields after just seeing them a day earlier on Gaytan's tables at the market. The freshness in taste made us very aware how lucky we are to get truly local and fresh produce from our Newport Beach Farmers' Market farmers and how very tangible the idea of "eating local" really is. </span></span></span><br />

Maricela is currently in her third year studying biological sciences at UC Riverside and stays plenty busy coordinating the family farm's presence at nearly twenty farmers' markets in Southern California. She says it's tough juggling so much but loves being able to help her family bring the best and freshest produce to other families wanting to eat healthfully and locally. </span></span></span><br />

New Gourmet Sweet Treats from Orange Clementine</h4>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Brand new vendor, <a href="http://www.orangeclementine.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Orange Clementine</span></a>, has delicious cakes and cookies made with genuine local California grown citrus. Their orange and lemon pound cakes have an amazing and refreshing aroma. They created their signature orange pound cake with inspiration from memories of orange groves and citrus blossom perfume in the Orange County air. Be sure to swing by for a sample! </div>

<h4>
Speaking of Citrus</h4>
<div>
Cold and flu season is here, but don't you worry, we've got plenty of Vitamin C direct from the farm! Visit Atkins Nursery at the market for a variety of citrus fruits like cara cara oranges and ruby red grapefruit. Citrus is an excellent source of Vitamin C, which is essential in helping prevent those winter flu germs from knocking down your door. Vitamin C also helps your body heal and has been shown to help lower blood pressure and cortisol levels when under stress. Sounds like a winner!</div>

<h4>
Dark Leafy Greens to Heal</h4>
<div>
Spinach is an amazing nutritious cool weather California crop you may want to eat more of this season. Spinach, and other dark leafy greens like kale, chard, and mustard greens are excellent sources of Vitamins K and A. Sometimes Vitamin K doesn't get enough props, but it sure does help us when we need it most. Vitamin K not only promotes bone health (combined with calcium of course), but it also helps you heal from minor cuts and scrapes (which is important during flu season when your immune system is tested). One cup of fresh spinach is about two handfuls and is equal to one veggie serving. Think about how easy it is to toss two handfuls of spinach in the blender with berries and OJ for breakfast. Yum! Be sure to visit Gaytan Family Farms on Sunday to pick up your leafy greens! </div>

<h4>
Go Nuts for Almonds</h4>
<div>
Almonds are known to be the healthy nuts on the block. They pack a serious nutritional punch to help with inflammation in the body and they actively promote good heart health. Almonds are also a good source of Vitamin E, which is an antioxidant shown to help maintain a healthy immune system and healthy hair and skin. And remember, almonds are packed with healthy fats to keep you feeling full longer. Now that's a nutritious and delicious snack to keep on hand this winter. Visit Hopkins AG for fresh raw, roasted, and flavored almonds. They even have almond butter!</div>

<span style="color: blue;">CSA Starting Early 2013 </span></h4>
<div>
Thank you for getting in touch earlier this month to let us know you're interested in a CSA program. We hope to roll it out in early 2013, however we still need to secure interest from more people in order to make this a viable steady source of income for our local small family farmers. We are also recruiting volunteers to help us organize the logistics of packaging and pick-up. If we haven't heard from you yet, please <a href="mailto:newportbeachfm@gmail.com" target="_blank">contact us</a> if you're interested in a 12 week CSA program to support our local farmers. More information to come on price, products, pick up times, and sign-up. </div>

Love to get farm fresh products from us each week but don't have time to shop? Have a loved one who can't get around very easily? Do you want to support the local food system and California's small family farmers but not sure how to make a difference? We're working on setting up a Community Supported Agriculture system to help make it even easier to shop for local healthy foods. </div>

Future Foods Farms from Brea (right here in Orange County!) will join us this Sunday. Come get nutritious fresh organic lettuces, microgreens, and more all grown super eco-consciously through an innovative aquaponics system. We recently went to visit with owner and farmer (and amazing chef to boot!), Adam Navidi, on his sustainable farm of aquaponic greenhouses. What an impressive set-up and the quality of his produce is outstanding! Do you know the role tilapia fish play in aquaponics farming?

We've got a brand new flower vendor bringing gorgeous bouquets to celebrate your day (or entire week!). We don't know about you, but at these oh-so-reasonable grower's prices, we like to buy several bundles to pretty up the entire house. Here's a tip: for that cozy autumn rustic look, pick a selection of simple flowers to place in your favorite jar or glass container. If you don't have a nifty jar with farmer's flair like we do, don't sweat it! Bet you have an old mason jar lying around or even old spaghetti sauce jars work too. Reuse, reduce, recycle! Oh, and when those flowers get a little too old, remember that most fresh cut flowers (watch out for the ones with hefty fibrous stems) can go in your green waste bin or be composted naturally at home with your food scraps. </div>

Nipomo has a long history of agriculture in California and with their mild weather, we're lucky enough to be on the receiving end of beautiful berries from one of their finest farmers, New Era Farms. They'll have an assortment of berries including strawberries and blackberries (maybe raspberries too, you'll have to come and see!) for us this Sunday. We're thinking a berry truffle for Sunday evening dessert may be in order. Oh, and did you know berries are a great source of Vitamin C and antioxidants to help keep our immune systems free of those upcoming flu bugs! Why don't you pack up a reusable container of fresh nutritious berries for the kids' lunches Monday morning? Sweet and easy to eat, what a treat! </div>

Thinking about what to make for dinner this week? Go pescetarian with our newest vendor, All Natural Seafood Market. They've got red snapper, sea bass, halibut, salmon, tuna, mahi mahi, white shrimp, lobster tail, and scallops! Maybe salmon on the grill topped with fresh sprouts and lemon? It doesn't get much easier or healthier than that! Or, if you really want a health bonus to accompany the wonderfully omega-3 rich salmon, why not add a slice of healthy fat and Vitamin E rich avocado on top? It's easy to eat fresh and healthy at the farmers' market! </div>

Changing of the Seasons Brings Us New Bounties!</h3>
<div>
As the fall season arrives, not only do we have cooler weather and cozy sweaters to look forward to (hopefully!), but we also look forward to new seasonal fruits and veggies on farmers' tables. Atkins Nursery and Fruita del Sol will have delicious organic apples in very soon. They've also got beautiful pomegranates at prices you just can't match at the supermarket! Gaytan Family Farms has a short window of yummy fresh berries in from their growing fields in Santa Maria. This past week our friend Jeronimo from Gaytan completely sold out of blackberries and raspberries so come and get them while they last! </div>

Recently we headed to the city of Riverside to visit organic farmers, Manuel and Lupe Flores, owners and operators of Menos Farms. Lupe and Manuel grow on a beautiful 4 acre property in a residential area of Riverside with the San Bernardino mountains providing a magnificent backdrop to their rows of organic veggies. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Menos Farms has been in operation for 4 years and they grow a variety of vegetables including: tomatoes, peppers, several varieties of kale and lettuces, herbs, corn, beets, carrots, strawberries, squash, cucumbers, onions, and so much more. They are certified organic and take great care and pride in choosing only the best organic seeds and starts to grow their delicious fresh food. </div>

When we asked Manuel and Lupe what influenced them to grow organically, they said health was at the forefront of their minds. They regularly listen to a nutritionist who airs a local program on Spanish radio and took her advice to heart on the benefits of eating a chemical-free, vegetable rich diet. They started juicing their freshly grown fruits and veggies for breakfast each morning and Manuel lost a whopping 20lbs from his new found commitment to healthy eating! They even have all four of their kids drinking some of their favorite juice recipes like: beets, black kale, celery, and pineapple. </div>

Menos Farms is committed to providing you with fresh and natural produce to help you maintain (or start!) your healthy eating habits just as they do. Trust us, with the planting, picking, and weeding they do by hand each week--there's definitely something to that fresh food to give them so much energy! </div>
<div>
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="text-align: center;">After walking the fields with Lupe and Manuel and picking a few of our own fresh cherry tomatoes to take home with us, we asked them why you--our loyal Newport Beach shoppers, should choose to buy from them. Lupe said, "We grow organic food for health." Enough said! </span></div>

Be sure to stop by the market this Sunday to see what yummy fresh produce Menos Farms will have to help support our own healthy eating habits!<br />

<br />
Our newest volunteer, Katy Storch (who lucky for us, happens to be a journalist in training at the <a href="http://www.ocregister.com/" target="_blank">Orange County Register</a>), recently got the inside scoop from Sweet Tree Farms seller, Nick Lopez, about his family's farm and what makes their produce so sweet! </div>
<div>
<br />
Sweet Tree Farms is located in Dinuba (30 miles southeast of Fresno) and started by former P.E. teacher Annie Florendo (Nick's cousin). It all began in 2002, with organic certification following in 2007. Annie grew up in a farming family and community in Dinuba. Her grandfather had a farm and now her sister has her own farm too. We hear all 18 grandchildren have in some way been involved with farming! Sweet Tree Farms is almost 40 acres of stone fruit orchards and grape vineyards for summertime and citrus, pomegranate, and persimmon for winter. </div>

Nick, who is known as Mr. Lopez during the school year in his position as a 4th grade teacher, has been selling at farmers' markets for five years. Nick says Sweet Trees' products are so delicious because of the careful planning that goes into farming. Before planting, they taste test different varieties to ensure the amazing flavor that will keep you coming back. Also, everything is hand picked from the farm, then it goes directly into the back of the truck to head off to the farmers' market. Nothing is cold stored.</div>
<div>
<br />
On why you should shop with Sweet Tree Farms each week, Nick said, "Every week we try to guarantee produce is fresh. We want to provide the produce for the weekly shopper who wants to enjoy fruit all week long, not just that day. We try to make sure the fruit we sell is firm, and thereby cater to the weekly shopper. We do a color pick to ensure just the right amount of ripeness. Customers trust us and come back each week to ask us what is good. If our peaches aren't great one week, I'm going to be honest and let them know. Customers are getting honesty as well." </div>

You can look forward to the emerald beaut plum from Sweet Tree Farms very soon at the market. This is a green plum, similar to a pluot, but very sweet! Give the emerald beaut a taste and you won't be disappointed!<br />

<div>
Look forward to a variety of local honey products including: raw honey, flavored honey, honey stix, honeycomb, and bee pollen. Autumn is just around the corner so it's a good time to give local honey a try to help with those changing-of-the-seasons allergies. Come on by to welcome Max and don't forget to ask him about his prized bees!<br />

Did you know we're non-profit run? <a href="http://www.sproutsofpromise.org/" target="_blank">Sprouts of Promise Foundation </a> runs four certified farmers' markets, including our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/socofm" target="_blank">SoCo Farmers' Market</a> in Costa Mesa. We have a very small staff of dedicated community members and volunteers, committed to bringing you fresh and healthy food each week. Many times we're asked, "Why is Newport Beach Farmers' Market so small? Why don't you add more farmers?" We are working on it and we could do even more with your help! Our farmers are small local family farms that almost exclusively sell at farmers' markets to earn a living. This means we need you, our wonderful local shoppers, each and every week to keep our farmers at the market. We recently lost two farmers which really hurts all the vendors at the market. If you'd like to help us recruit more farmers to grow the market, please choose to donate today. We're a thrifty and creative bunch so a little money goes a long way. :) <b> <a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=FFWKTB25WHX58" target="_blank">DONATE</a></b><br />
<br />
We'll see you this Sunday 9am-1pm for farmers' market style fitness and farm fresh food! </div>

We're sure you've stumbled upon this smiling face at the Farmers' Market on Sundays, but just in case you haven't, please meet Jeronimo from Gaytan Family Farm! Jeronimo brings us delicious amazing fresh produce every week from Gaytan Family Farm located in Mira Loma, California. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Recently we chatted with Maricela Gaytan, the eldest Gaytan Family sibling and operator of Gaytan Family Farm. Maricela was nice enough to also translate for her mother, Edelmira Gaytan, to tell us a about the history of their farm and more about their fresh and tasty fruits and veggies. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghj-Gm0CtwQ9bcwuHnDNwlVMkRaR3WMsyg9SspOvINQaTfiWUqbfgPYdOW7nZvIhNzDtOxLdP430nhmHncVws4JKTyu-JGGa4Pof7uO5TR95ldwAgl4W00zXDJ4cStKodo2e7HvZHwnls/s1600/gaytan+carrots.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghj-Gm0CtwQ9bcwuHnDNwlVMkRaR3WMsyg9SspOvINQaTfiWUqbfgPYdOW7nZvIhNzDtOxLdP430nhmHncVws4JKTyu-JGGa4Pof7uO5TR95ldwAgl4W00zXDJ4cStKodo2e7HvZHwnls/s320/gaytan+carrots.jpeg" width="238" /></a></div>
<div>
Gaytan Family Farm was started in 2001 by Maricela's parents, Albertano and Edelmira Gaytan. Albertano worked as a farmworker for 14 years prior to establishing his own family farm. Edelmira said they were inspired to run a farm because both she and her husband grew up farming to feed their families and surrounding community. She also said, "Farming is something the whole family can be a part of. It helps everyone." </div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;">Gaytan Family Farm's home base is in Mira Loma where they grow most of their herbs including: papalo, espazote, basil, cilantro, and parsley. They also grow crops of fresh fruits and veggies in Chino (green beans, squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, beets, cantaloupe, and watermelon), in Santa Maria (broccoli, celery, brussel sprouts, lettuce, carrots, and artichokes), and in Aguana (garlic, potatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe).</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHhHf1df35M4WvJZJXVVGpXbSQpfCv9e0y-W41sLLHKEfgMqhxvz06isaW4erMYuvHrq5H3FhKk5BWae9OWvm0r6Crv8m2c2wwoiyMC8HIUo_nkKMLfGCiKJsjlKEszh66vuETtGW0dr4/s1600/gaytan+chino+farm.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHhHf1df35M4WvJZJXVVGpXbSQpfCv9e0y-W41sLLHKEfgMqhxvz06isaW4erMYuvHrq5H3FhKk5BWae9OWvm0r6Crv8m2c2wwoiyMC8HIUo_nkKMLfGCiKJsjlKEszh66vuETtGW0dr4/s320/gaytan+chino+farm.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">We asked Maricela and Edelmira what makes their farm so special and why you should shop with them. "Our family offers the best quality and great service." Now, if you've had their strawberries and artichokes, you definitely know the quality is superb and if you've chatted with our friend Jeronimo, you know he offers you excellent service! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;">Come August you can look forward to blueberries and raspberries from Gaytan's fields in Santa Maria. But remember, the best and freshest produce is seasonal (everything you'll find at our Newport Beach Certified Farmers' Market!) so check back with us every Sunday to find out what's new and what's on it's way! </span></div>

<b>Hey Parents, Want to Teach Your Kids About Local Farms & Good Food?</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Bring your children to the market and encourage them to use all their senses to learn about all the wonderful fresh fruits and veggies our farmers grow. Smell some <i>cilantro </i>from <b>Gaytan Farms</b>. Or how about tasting a <i>cherimoya</i> from <b>Sahu Subtropical</b>? Maybe pick up a <i>basil</i> plant from <b>Atkins Nursery</b> to grow at home? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Encourage your kids to talk to our farmers and find out where their delicious food comes from and how it's grown.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.drakefamilyfarms.com/" target="_blank">Drake Family Farms</a> - a great local goat cheese maker from
Ontario (just 34 miles from downtown LA) joins us this Sunday. Their chèvre is amazing with many flavors, including </span></span>Lemon Pepper, Apricot & Honey, Basil, Herbs De Provence, French Herbs, Garlic & Onion, Jalapeño. Dr. Dan Drake (pictured) is a
veterinarian, third generation goat farmer and true goat-lover. His farm is the
only local goat dairy that produces cheese in Southern California. Drake Farms
is "artisanal” cheese. What does this mean? Well, the American Cheese
Society has stated that "artisinal" implies that a cheese is produced
primarily by hand, produced in small batches, and uses as little mechanization
as possible. All the cheese produced by Drake Farms is both <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">artisanal</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">farmstead</i> (meaning made on the farm, with milk exclusively <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">from</i> the farm’s own animals).<br />

stop by and chat with Dave to find out all about the health benefits of his fresh eggs and non-factory farmed meats. Then take some home and see for yourself. </div>

Our potatoes
are oh so sweet thanks to the addition of Olivares Farms from Delhi,
California, who which brings six varieties of sweet potatoes. The colors are
just the beginning; the taste is the finishing touch. Olivares has the highly
sought after Okinawa sweet potato, which is tan in color on the outside; like a
russet, but bright magenta color on the inside! Enjoy these potatoes baked,
roasted, boiled, steamed, candied, scalloped, or mashed.</div>
