Morningside Market Gets A Sign, Finally

You might remember that as part of our opening celebration we hosted an opening party that doubled as a fundraiser for The Morningside Market. We are thrilled to announce that the money raised during our opening party paid for a new, permanent sign for the Morningside Farmers Market!

After more than 10 years in existence, it is about time our favorite market gets some signage! Thanks to everyone who came out and supported the Market.

Yelp Takes Over Rosebud

From the picture above it looks like we (the staff) had just as much fun at last night's Yelp Elite party as the Yelpers themselves! It was a great event - normally we are closed on Sunday evenings but last night we opened the door to Atlanta's Yelp Elite community for a special party showcasing our new menu. We offered samples of many of our menu items (sliders, eggplant chips, onion rings, shrimp & grits...) as well as some amazing cocktails (local Canary melon cocktails, anyone?) to about 150 guests last night.

The best part of the evening was the atmosphere - everyone was in a party spirit and it quickly reverberated through the staff as well. Atlanta Photography came out and took some hilarious photos (including the awesome staff shot shown above). We can't thank the Yelp crowd enough for the fun times and we hope everyone plans repeat visits soon!

Blueberry Pancakes

At Saturday's Morningside Market Chef Ron prepared fresh blueberry pancakes as a fundraiser for Morningside Elementary School. $5 got you two very large, piping hot pancakes filled with fresh blueberries and topped with Vermont maple syrup and extra blueberries. It was a fun way to start the weekend and, judging by the line all morning, most people agreed with us!

Aside, from the delicious pancakes, I walked away from the market with pickling cucumbers, beautiful yellow and green summer squash, mini hierloom tomatoes, okra and a melon. I was thrilled to see okra as it has always been one of my favorite vegetables. Maybe I'll be able to talk Ron into offering it as a special while it is season...
