Get Your Summer Beans While You Can!!!

It's still a bean-lover's paradise in the Greenmarket today, with Berried Treasure's string and shell beans, Cherry Lane's limas, and Mountain Sweet Berry's haricots verts and jaunes, but time is marching on, so seize the moment!

Cherry Lane still has beautiful, if slightly larger, fairytale eggplants, okra, corn, and tomatoes, and Sycamore is here with cucumbers, peppers, corn, heirloom tomatoes, and cranberry beans. Eckerton has a wide variety of hot peppers, and has brought in their boxes of assorted hot peppers -- very interesting to experiment with. They also have all sorts of heirloom tomatoes and have great boxes of mixed small heirlooms.

Ted Blew of Oak Grove is here with heirloom tomatoes, peaches, melons, peppers, and other tasty produce. Paffenroth has puntarella, dandelion greens, and other unique vegetables. Stokes Farm has generous bunches of cut herbs, delicious squashes, and heirloom tomatoes.

Fantasy Fruit has blueberries and strawberries and Mountain Sweet Berry and Berried Treasure have delicious strawberries as well.

River Garden and Flora Perfecta are here with beautiful flowers and the orchid people have brought in lovely and unique flowering plants.
