East Liberty Farmers’ Market Update

Hello Highland Park Neighbors,

I want to remind you that the East Liberty Farmers Market is open year round- every Saturday from 5 AM to 12 Noon. The market is located at 344 North Sheridan Ave., adjacent to the Home Depot parking lot.

A great selection of products are available.  The Kennedys are still bringing in fresh, locally grown meat.  And the other farmers- Zang’s, Kistaco Farm, and Greenwalt’s are bringing in a great variety of fresh vegetables and fruits.  Kistaco still has locally grown apples and cider!  Fresh eggs, locally made cheese, bread and much more.

Of course, we will be brewing the coffee- Kew Park- fresh from Jamaica.  We just got a new shipment today.  Boy, does it taste good on a cold morning- which we have been having a lot of lately.  Whole beans are available for sale. 

Also, Marco and Maria are now making hot chocolate and squeezing fresh OJ.

See you at the market.

ANNOUNCING THE AVAILABILITY OF KEW PARK
COFFEE IN THE PITTSBURGH AREA

The Kew Park Coffee Bar at the East Liberty Farmers Market
A new coffee bar opened recently at the East Liberty Farmers Market that features some incredible coffee from Jamaica.  Fresh brewed and whole bean coffee will be available at the market. Kew Park Coffee is being brought to you directly from the farm by the Lagnese family of Highland Park. The coffee is roasted and shipped directly from Jamaica to Pittsburgh on a weekly basis. It does not go through a distributor or wholesaler, and thus does not sit on a shelf in a warehouse.

The East Liberty Farmers Market operates year round and is open every Saturday from 5 am until 12 noon. The market is located behind Home Depot. The East Liberty Farmer’s Market has been a part of our community since 1947!  The market features a great variety of locally grown and made items including meats, fruits and vegetables, bread, eggs, cider, cheese and much more.

The Kew Park Story
Kew Park Estate is a well-known coffee estate located high in the hills of the parish of Westmoreland, in Western Jamaica. Coffee has been grown on Kew Park for over 200 years. Currently, a total of 35 acres of Arabica coffee is grown at Kew Park, and is widely regarded as among the best Jamaican coffees. The coffee farm is part of a larger 2,200 acre farm that features citrus and other fruits, as well as beef cattle, pigs, chickens and hardwood tropical trees—all grown and raised using sustainable methods. The farm also specializes in the production of essential oils and aromatic fragrances. Kew Park was granted one of the first “Estate Grown Coffee” designations issued by the Jamaican Coffee Industry Board. The Estate Grown Coffee status allows Kew Park to process and market the coffee both locally and for export.

Kew Park is a family run operation—owned and operated by Peter Williams and his wife Gina Green. The Williams family has farmed Kew Park for five generations. They take great pride in the way they grow and process their coffee. The Kew Park farm provides livelihood to many families in the surrounding communities.

The Coffee Bar
The coffee bar is also a family run operation- the Lagnese family from Highland Park- David, Cristy, Marco and Maria.
