Cavaillon Melons!! Heirloom Tomatoes!! Delfino arugula!!

I have to talk about the Cavaillon melons at Norwich Meadow Farm's stand. I first had them in Cavaillon a long time ago -- never forgot them, they were so delicious. The one I got from Norwich was outstanding -- and just as good. Norwich also has a big selection of heirloom tomatoes, squashes, eggplants, peppers, and other tasty produce. Oak Grove, Bodhitree, Sycamore, and others have great heirloom tomatoes as well. Between the melons, the baby squashes at Berried Treasures, the corn at Sycamore, the hot and sweet peppers at Oak Grove, and the peaches all around the market, I'm in summer heaven!! Muddy River is one of the few stands with lettuces today -- probably due to the heat we've been having. Norwich has tomatillos and Oak Grove has beautiful sunflowers -- with lots of bees!!
