Peaches!! Heirloom Tomatoes! Baby Squashes! New Melons!

Cheerful Cherry has the first of their luscious peaches. Samascott, Oak Grove, and others also have tasty peaches. This year's heirloom tomato crop is amazing, with Oak Grove, Sycamore, Norwich Meadows, Cheerful Cherry, Bodhitree, and others bringing in a wide variety of delicious large and small tomatoes. We also have some interesting new melon varieties, brought in by Oak Grove, Bodhitree, Norwich Meadows, and others.

Oak Grove, Norwich, Bodhitree, and others have a wide variety of sweet and hot peppers and many kinds of eggplant. Several stands have husk tomatoes and Berried Treasures and Norwich have Romano beans as well as many other varities. Bodhitree has the only cranberry beans I saw today as well as red okra. John Fazio has their mixed egg pack (duck, egg, and guinea hen), as well as rabbit and duck. Lavender By The Bay is here with good gift choices and fragrant bunches of lavender. Two Guys is here with salad greens, herbs, and microgreens. Dancing Ewe has delicious Italian cheeses and merquez. The ostrich meat stand has various cuts of ostrich meat and Cayuga is here with beans, flours, and grains.
