Marching into a New Newsletter
Anybody else feel like the car in this picture? Because this year is flying by for us! Here’s hoping the bright, verdant green of the March newsletter bleeds into the natural backdrop around us. Take a deep breath and remember the groundhog said early spring - he just didn’t say how many false starts between now and then.
March is both St. Patrick’s Day and Easter; a reason for madness, spring break, and the technical beginning of spring. So let’s all get ready to strap in and enjoy it!
AR Market is closed on Sunday 3/31 for Easter, so plan your dinner/candy/egg hunts accordingly!
PRESALE PRESALE PRESALE
Last month brought the launch of our seafood program. We’re excited to be able to extend the ocean’s reach all the way to central Vermont. Just a reminder to all of the fish lovers on our mailing list - your support of our seafood preorder will keep it alive, and allows us to grow our offerings. If you’ve been thinking about it but haven’t tried it yet, give us a click below - order by end of business Wednesday for Friday pickup.

March VT Vendor Highlight
If you’re a cheese case maniac, you may have noticed the arrival of Sweet Rowen Farmstead. We’re excited to highlight them as this month’s Featured Local Vendor.
Located in West Glover, Sweet Rowen keeps Vermont Heritage Lineback cows that are almost completely grass-grazed and supplemented with carefully-sourced grain pellets (more on that here at their web site).
Their squeaky curds are an instant snack classic, and their dips and spreads are delicious and versatile. They also produce milk, yogurt, and a wide variety of other cheeses. We currently feature their curds and VT herb farmer’s cheese - come check them out at the market and see why we love it!
MARCH SALES CALENDAR
March 9th - National Meatball Day - Come celebrate with the pros! We will be discounting 20% off of AR Market meatballs. And you better believe we’ve got everything you need to go with ‘em, from parm and sauce, to pasta and wine.
March 14th - Pi Day / Pie Day - While we don’t carry much for pies, we wanted to tip our hat to the GFG (Gluten-Free Gang) and reduce our frozen gluten-free pies and pie crusts by 20% for 3/14. Don’t pie on my leg and tell me it’s raining!
March 17th - St. Patrick’s Day - We’re an Italian Market, don’t get it twisted. But today, we’re celebrated two fine Irish products: Guinness Extra Stout and Keogh’s Potato Chips. Guinness Extra Stout cans will be $2.49 until we run out, and all Keogh’s chips will be 20% for the day.
March 20th - National Ravioli Day - Our impressive array of fresh and frozen ravioli will be 20% off all day long.
March 31st - EASTER! More on that below. But AR Market will be closed.
YET MORE PRESALE PRESALE PRESALE
Happy Early Easter from the AR Market crew! You know us as your source for some of the best meats around - but now it’s time to go HAM on hams!
Check out our Easter ham presale, and order at $7.99/lb through 3/26 - a better deal than we’ve ever offered before. We’ll be offering your choise of rosemary cotto ham or our maple ham - delicious any way you slice it.
AR Market will be closed on Easter (3/31), so pick-up will be from Wednesday 3/27 to Saturday 3/30 at 6 pm when we close. We’ll also have some great Easter candy and plenty of holiday dinner staples.
