There are still great heirloom tomatoes if you look carefully. There are many stands with tasty cherry tomatoes as well. Keith, Norwich, Cherry Lane, Stokes, Sycamore and some others have some of the best.

Gorzynski's lettuces
 There are great apples and pears all over the market -- try Locust Grove, Terhune, Caradonna, and Cheerful Cherry. Cheerful, Locust Grove, and Buzzard Crest have delicious grapes, and Buzzard Crest has wonderful juices. (Better freeze some before they disappear!) Breezy Hill also has great apples, including crabapples.
Cherry Lane's Eggplants
Shushan is back with hydroponic tomatoes and herbs.  S&SO, Oak Grove and others have tomatillos and Norwich Meadows has winter squashes, fresh ginger, a wide variety of peppers, and beautiful beans. Berried Treasures is here with beans, tomatoes, and potatoes, and Paffenroth has their unique greens, potatoes, radishes, and many kinds of carrot. Gorzynsky has lovely lettuces and black radishes this week.
