Catch Asparagus While You Can! The Season is winding down!

Cherry Lane has new red skin and yukon gold potatoes, greenhouse heirloom tomatoes, and squashes. Lani and a couple of other stands have asparagus, but this is more or less the end of the season. Eckerton has zucchini blossoms and D'Attolico has some of the sweetest sugar snap peas in the market. Stokes and Keith have great young garlic and Stokes has tasty greenhouse tomatoes, cut herbs, squashes, and other produce. Keith also has beautiful organic lettuces and herbs, as does Gorzynski. Norwich Meadows is here with lovely greens and mini squashes.

Quattro's has luscious poultry, including delicious small chickens, boneless chicken breasts, ducks and duck parts, sausages, and eggs (creamy pheasant, turkey, and chicken eggs). Violet Hill is here with Belle Rouge chickens, fresh pork, and a variety of interesting mushrooms.

River Garden has fragrant lavender, beautiful bouquets, and grasses. Ryder Farm is back with bouquets and organic vegetables. PE&DD and Seatuck are here with seafood (Seatuck has live blueclaw crabs!).
