Month: September 2018

Sean Gill, a master of American Fingerstyle guitar playing and one of our all-time market favorites, returns to perform on the 29th. The market will also be holding a Plastic Recycling Day during which we’ll be providing a convenient, local drop-off collection point one day ahead of the Lane County Waste Management’s First Free Plastics Roundup Event. The Spencer Creek Growers Market will have collection bins marked for three categories of plastic that are being accepted for recycling.

Join us on September 22nd when Simeone Allocco takes to the stage at the Spencer Creek Growers Market. Simeone will perform on banjo together with his girlfriend who’ll be assisting with vocals.

This coming Saturday, September 15th, we’ll be featuring our Annual Locavore Hamburger Luncheon at the Spencer Creek Growers Market. We’ll be serving pasture raised beef burgers on buns made from organic, locally grown heirloom whole wheat flour, baked black beans with honey, roasted red potatoes from Let it Grow Farm, green salad from our local gardeners, apple and blueberry pies with whipped cream, all sweetened with honey rather than sugar. Genie’s special sauces (tahini, ginger carrot, basil, etc.) will also be available for folks that want to add extra pizazz to their burgers! Music will be performed by the Daniel Powell Quartet, an extraordinary group of musicians who have played together for the past several years in the Eugene area. Hope you can make it!!

Eric Nicholson, a well-known and accomplished folk musician from the Eugene area, will be performing at the Spencer Creek Growers’ Market on September 8th at 11:30. Eric is a folksinger/songwriter who likes to make his own arrangements of some of his favorites from the 60s and 70s as well as celtic and american folk traditionals on guitar, harmonicas, mountain dulcimer and clawhammer style banjo. Grab a healthy plate of delicious all-local lunch at Genie’s Open Source Kitchen, pull up a chair and enjoy the performance!
