Welcome back to another MCM (Market Crush Monday)! Welcome back to another MCM (Market Crush Monday)! This week we talked to John and Elizabeth from Mrs. London’s Bakery. They bring fresh baked pastries, breads and sandwiches to the market every week.

1. How did Mrs. London’s get started?
It all started in the ‘70s, when pastry chef Michael London and his wife and baking apprentice Wendy began baking in Greenwich Village in New York City. They dreamed of opening a French bakery together and in 1977 did just that by opening Mrs. London’s in Saratoga Springs. We have been serving French pastries, desserts, bread and more for over 40 years.

2. What is your best seller at the farmers’ market?
The almond croissant is our most popular product by far! But our personal favorites are the currant cream scones and the custard rum raisin.

3. What do you like about working at the market?
It’s just a happy place to work and we’ve made a lot of great friends and regular customers over the years. It’s also nice to get some of our own market favorites each week - our current go-to is Ukranian food from My Dacha Slovenian Cafe!

Stop by Mrs. London’s every Saturday from 9:30-1:30 in the Wilton Mall food court!

Another week, another Market Crush Monday! This we Another week, another Market Crush Monday! This week we talked to Argyle Cheese Farmer’s Dave, who brings a variety of aged cheeses, curds, yogurt, smoothies, frozen pizzas, and more to the market each week!

1. How did you get started with Argyle Cheese Farmer?
My wife, Marge, and I started back in 2007 with producing yogurt, buttermilk and cheese on my family farmstead which had been in operation since 1860. Over the years, Marge - who is quite the visionary! - has expanded our business and product line immensely but we have always stayed committed to using only high quality milk from local farms without artificial hormones.

2. Can you tell me a little bit about your recent expansion?
We recently opened a retail store and production facility in Hudson Falls where you can buy all of our products as well as a collection of local artisan’s eggs, honey, maple syrup, and much more. The cool thing about this location is that we built it with windows into our production area so you can watch some of your favorites being made!

3. What is your favorite part about vending at the market? 
That would definitely be meeting the people who love our products. I’ve made some really great friends over the years and it's nice to be able to see familiar faces each week. 

Be sure to visit the Argyle Cheese Farmer every Saturday from 9:30 to 1:30 in the Wilton Mall food court! 

Are you interested in becoming a vendor at the market? Our summer vendor applications are open now from January 15th-31st! Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to grow your business and join the farmers’ market community!
