Our first installment! We at Wesleying are here to tell you all about stuffing your faces at Wesleyan as part of our Unofficial Orientation Series 2012. A tradition begun by the Wesleying legends Holly Wood ’08 and Xue Sun ’08, this post has evolved a bit over the years. I’m trying for brevity, so if these details aren’t enough for your Wes-crazed brains, then check out this post from 2011.
Everything after the jump:
Sun’s out, guns out, guys. Srrrsly, it’s gonna be mad warm tomorrow. This just in from Will Levitt ’12 and Damiano Marchetti ’12:

Shane Donahue ’14 writes in to let you know the glorious details about this semester’s final Wesleyan Farmers’ Market tomorrow in Beckham:
The celebrity chef, Pamela Dunn, will be serving FREE SAMPLES of the following for the duration of the market: Black Lentil Dahl, Oh My Ghobi, Seasoned Basmati, Thai Jasmine Congee, Red Grains & Butternut, Scarlet Runner Beans, and Mushroom Harvest Pilaf. As always, your usual wonderful vendors will be posted up from 11 a.m. till 2 p.m. in Beckham. So, bring CASH with you, as well! Bon App will serve up a delicious local lunch for those of you still able to rely on your WesID for points or a meal.
So, in case you missed the farmers’ market last week, you seriously missed out. I don’t want the same thing to happen to you again at the market tomorrow. Bon Appetit served up incredibly delicious local pork sandwiches and tofu with curry salad dressing, both on ciabatta bread. May or may not be salivating while reminiscing about it now. Not to mention the peach crisp and frozen apple cider. And, attention underclassmen: Bon Appetit will now accept points AND meals for their local lunch.
If that’s not enough to entice you to come to this week’s market (happening tomorrow), then just let this incredible list of vendors bring you out to the market with PLENTY OF CASH to spend.
And, as you can see, the weather is supposed to be beautiful. Seriously, you need to be there. 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. TOMORROW. Usdan Courtyard.

Wesleyan Farmer’s Market is looking for a new revamped logo for the coming fall. We’ll be adopting it next semester and using it on new t-shirts! You can submit your design to Maddie Ames ’13 via e-mail at mames(at)wesleyan(dot)edu or to Wesbox 91542. We’re looking for a design that really embodies the Farmer’s Market. The winner may win a special surprise! Please have your designs in by Sunday night at 11:59 PM. May the best logo win!
Last week’s farmer’s market was cancelled due to the weather but we’re making up for it this Wednesday! Take advantage of the beautiful spring weather and sunshine and spend some time (and money) at the market. Usual vendors will be back (stuffed breads, produce, baked sweets, and more) plus a local lunch (with vegetarian option) provided by Bon Apetit, which can be purchased for points.
I don’t know what’s worse: that I’m blogging this with a completely empty stomach, or that I probably won’t be able to make the market.
Anyway, home-boys Will Levitt ’12 and Damiano Marchetti ’12 are back with an awesome sequel to their sandwich stand in today’s farmer’s market.
We’re back at the market. This week it’s a sweet potato sandwich with saucy coleslaw, radish and red onion on Howard’s baguette.
Love,

Come enjoy a gorgeous spring day at the Wesleyan Farmer’s Market out in Usdan Courtyard this Wednesday afternoon. Goat cheese and stuffed breads will be back along with produce, spices, baked sweets, and more. Bon Apetit will also be providing a lunch (vegetarian option available) made with local ingredients which can be purchased with points.
Come out to Usdan Courtyard for the first outdoor market of the spring semester. The weather forecast shows it’ll be a balmy 50 degrees and pretty sunny. Bring cash to purchase from an assortment of pies, produce, honeys, coffee, cheeses, and more. At least bring your Wescard because Bon Appétit is back (sorry about the last market folks) and will be offering a lunch (vegetarian option available) made with local ingredients for points.
