Pink ginger from Wishing Stone Farm in Little Compton on its way to local chefs.

The Market Mobile program didn’t just get local food on the table, it created some new opportunities.

In Little Compton, Wishing Stone Farm’s Skip Paul has been experimenting with growing ginger, including a pink variety. The chefs have tried it and love its intensity, and Paul has decided to ramp up his production, said Noah Fulmer, director of Farm Fresh RI.

Then there’s the great story that began at Schartner’s Farm in Exeter. Rich Schartner grows winter rye to use around the farm. He thought he’d list it as an available product on the Market Mobile site. That got people thinking how nice it would be have a unique Rhody rye flour. Kenyon’s Grist Mill, West Kingston, said it would grind the rye into flour, creating what Kenyon’s Paul Drumm III calls “the Rye Project.” Olga’s Cup and Saucer and Seven Stars Bakery, both in Providence, said they wanted to get involved in creating this new blend and to eventually bake bread with it.

It will be available to all, as Farm Fresh RI will sell it at this Wintertime Farmer’s Market, said Drumm.

The Market resumes every Saturday, Nov. 7 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., beginning Nov. 7 at Hope Artiste Village, 1005 Main St., Pawtucket,
