Dr. Kristen Mowry is offering this service free! She has local farmers and watermen doing a farmer's market every Tuesday - it's worth the trip! Her office is across the road from The RamsHead.
EVERY TUESDAY 5:00pm-6:30pm Dr. Mowry's Office: 711 Main Street, Stevensville, MD
Please support my market! I want to make it a forever thing, and the only way to do that is by you showing up to my office on Tuesday nights from 5pm-6:30pm!
What's offered? Beef, Chicken, Pork, Eggs, Vegetables/Greens, Artisan Cheese, Yogurt, and Milk!
Who are the farmers? See below, this newsletter is all about the food that will be available at the FRESH market.
Why are you doing this? I want everyone's grocery bill to be less right now, but most of all I want local and organic food to be available for you. The better you eat, the happier you are. The cheaper your grocery bill, the happier you are. The more people that support the local farmers that do it right, the happier the farmers. All of this makes me a happy doctor, so really everybody wins.
How does this work? The farmers prefer if you pre-order (see below), but that is not necessary! You can just show-up and buy whatever you see! First come, first served. If you would like to pre-order for April 13th, you may start ordering now!
What payment is accepted? Cash or check.
If I can't make it, will you hold the food for me? I am sorry but this isn't possible. It's just too much to hold orders overnight for people and then payment to the farmer gets delayed, etc.
How can I help? If you are interested in getting your food for a discount or for free, contact me (Dr. Mowry), We are looking for folks who would be able to pick up from the Easton area and deliver the food to my office on the days that the farmers can't make it. Even if you would be willing to do it once a month, we need all the help we can get.
HOW TO PRE-ORDER
Milk: Nice Farms Creamery, Bob. nicefarmscreamery@gmail.com or (410) 754-3213
Beef, Chicken, Pork, Eggs: Cedar Run Farms, Lew.sales@cedarruncattle.com or (410) 556-6728
Cheese and Yogurt:Chapels Country Creamery, Holly.info@chapelscountrycreamery.com or (410) 820-6647
Vegetables and Greens:Will change on a weekly basis, Call Cleo (410) 819-8298 or e-mail Billie from Cottingham Farms for what's available weeklybgibson202225@yahoo.com
PLEASE Spread the word to your friends and family!!
The only way to keep this market going is to have a consistent turn out. So come on a regular basis and let everyone know. The more people that show, the more variety of food I can gather each week!

Any chance you can post prices? I'd love to purchase some local meat and milk, but I'd need to know prices first.

Stopped by last Tuesday. Tried some cheese and milk which were great! The Cedar Run Cattle guy has every kind of cut of meat you can think of. Good stuff! Didn't make it today but definitely going back next week.

I want to make it a forever thing, and the only way to do that is by you showing up to my office on Tuesday nights from 5pm-6:30pm! I think a real farmers market is a good thing. Pre-orders and people to pick-up in Easton and drop-off at the "Doctor's" practice is somewhat interesting though. I have two relatives who have been patients of "Doctor" Mowry and I am not saying a Farmer's Marker is a bad thing. However, I have raised questions and others have as well about the "Doctor" thing. Kristen Mowry is not a "Medical" Doctor but still chooses to refer to herself as one. I am sure she does good things as she tries to expand her practice in to other areas. We tried to work with her on this one thing when one of our doctors who sent my grandmother to her, had questions about who she was. Doctor Mowry insisted she was a "doctor" and our family doctor ended up sending my grandmother somewhere else because of it. Farmer's Market - Great thing! Claiming to be a Medical Doctor (as in "Dr. Mowry") - not always such a good thing.

I assure you that if you spent the years that it takes to learn everything required to earn the degree in whatever field, you would also add "Doctor" to your name - I know several people who do. In defense of Kristen, she does not claim to be a medical doctor at all, she is a doctor of physical therapy. She has referred me to my primary doctor before for concerns she discovered. Kristen is a good person who is looking for the well being - food and money wise for the general community. She is not making a dime on this farmer's market - she is donating her space and time. I'm skeptical of your claims.

I believe most chiropractors end up with a doctorate degree in chiropractic. So, they use the "Doctor" title. I agree that it can be somewhat misleading, but the only other option would be for them to downplay their education...

Maybe in the same catagory as: Dr. Martin Luther King - Doctorate Degree in Philosophy Dr. Henry Kissinger - Doctorate Degree in International relations Dr. Bill Cosby - Doctorate Degree in Education Dr. Ruth Westmeimer - Doctorate Degree in Education Dr. Laura Schlessinger - Doctorate Degree in Psysiology Dr. Dre - Seriously, are you kidding me? Theodore Geisel - Never heard of him? Better known as Dr. Suess - Again, I can't figure why

I'm skeptical of your claims. It is fine that you are skeptical of my claims. They are true experiences and you may doubt them. I can assure you though, that the letters behind my name are the following: M.S., MEng., and PhD. I spent all the years it took to earn those "letters" and I have an idea what it took to get there. I do not refer to myself as a "Doctor." I am a doctor of letters, who spent a long, many years studying and working in my field. I don't feel like I need to throw around titles and the people I work with do what they do for the cause and titles don't garner the respect we receive - if we are respected at all. My post was about my experience only. I have had discussions with several others who have the same concern about a physical therapist referring to his or herself as a "doctor" and that is the issue I was trying to raise. When my grandmothers ortho surgeon (a well-known surgeon at John's Hopkins) received an "urgent" phone message from Dr. Mowry to call her "immediately" about a "mutual patient" he was not happy to find out the call was about a "routine" matter that a physical therapist wanted to ask about. It was not urgent or an emergency and the surgeon was so put off when he asked for clarification about who he was speaking with that he asked my granmother to move to another physical therapy practice. I think I said it in my original remarks that I'm sure she has the right intention with her practice and her "farmers market" I was just raising the whole "doctor" issue. We have other physical therapists on the island - I can think of a couple and none of them refer to themselves that way. Actually - I called a friend in another state who is a pt and is also a DPT - he said he has never heard of a pt referring to his or herself as a "doctor." I was just saying that it is not the standard in that particular field to refer to yourself as a doctor and it has been questioned in the past. It made my grandmother and her sister and a few others uncomfortable - including her surgeon. Why the need to mislead? I never said she wasn't concerned about what she does or that she is not a good pt.

Cedar Run has the best grass fed beef, chicken and pork. Their eggs are awesome. I couldn't believe how much better everything tastes and haven't bought any meat, chicken or eggs at the grocery store since the market opened. You can place an order online with them or hope that they have what you want on the truck. They have an extensive list of what's available. Sorry to go on and on about them. I'm just extremely impressed with the quality.
