Delicious slurpy peaches at Toigo, Sycamore, Cheerful Cherry, and Oak Grove. This is Cheerful's last weekend for peaches!

I'm having an amazing white peach as I write. Several stands have great Italian plums -- I bought some to make a tart for the weekend.

 Franca of Berried Treasures has excellent shelling beans -- cannellini, flageolets, cranberry beans, and others.
