Still Nasty, Still Rainy, But the Greenmarket is Here and the Produce is Beautiful!

Just about all of the farmers are here today, despite the lousy weather. Everyone has brought in pretty much the same produce, with some new entries. Eckerton has red okra, in addition to their heirloom tomatoes and peppers. Northshire has foraged callaloo (amaranth), in addition to their heirloom squashes and other greens.

Mountain Sweet Berry has their haricots verts, yellow beans, Romano beans, etc., and says they are taking next Wednesday off. Locust Grove has peaches, raspberries, plums, and other fruit. Red Jacket has apricots and plums. Norwich has beans, eggplants, heirloom tomatoes, and great greens. Oak Grove is here with peaches, heirloom tomatoes, and hot and sweet peppers. D'Attolico has onions and sprouts and some greens today.
