The strawberries are coming on strong now. Richfield and Truck Patch will have even more berries this week and now Quaker Valley will have some early Sweet Charlie variety too. I’d still expect them to sell out by noon, so come early. We’re still awash in asparagus, my very favorite food on the grill. And market is lush with greens for fantastic salads. Pick up some great sausages and ground beef for your Memorial Day grill, and some of those cute rolls from Atwater Bakery.
Bring the kids early for Nathan the Jazzy Juggler! He will entertain us this Saturday from 9 -11 and then we’ll have The Mountaineers with an acoustic bluegrass set.
Saturday bike clinic is still on! Contest this week: submit your ideas for a good name for the Bike Thing. We’d love more volunteers of all skill levels – really, even if you don’t know how to rebuild a hub, we still want folks on hand who can help inflate tires, learn how to patch a tube, and offer opinions on routes.
Tree and Leaf Farm: Beautiful, nutrient dense vegetables are grown without chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides. Baby Mei Qing pac choi (aka bok choy) has a lovely tender white rib. Escarole, endive, lettuce heads, salad mix, baby chard, turnip greens. Baby beets and hakurei salad turnips (the greens are great too). Cut herbs. Basil, flower, and veggie plants. Asparagus.
Richfield Farm: Strawberries are in full swing. Red and white spring onions, Savannah smooth leaf greens, tatsoi, lettuce heads, tons of asparagus and rhubarb, hanging nasturtium and petunia baskets, herb starts. Maybe some zucchini and snap peas!
Truck Patch Farms: MORE strawberries, MORE asparagus, curly kale, arugula, spring mix, lettuce, red chard, chives, garlic chives, tarragon, mint. Black Angus grass fed beef, pastured pork products and eggs.
Quaker Valley Farm: Strawberries! Purple and green asparagus, apples, dried apples, popcorn, canned Madison peaches, blueberry and tart cherry jams (great with Keswick’s quark), and tomato sauce.
Reid Orchard: Fuji and Pink Lady apples, apple butter, pumpkin butter, apple sauce, and herbs. Plants for your garden: heirloom tomatoes, basil, chives, cilantro, dill, french tarragon, lavender, lemon balm, lemon verbena, mint, oregano, rosemary, sage, thyme, winter savory.
Audia Farms: Jams, fruit syrups, herbs, spices, tea, perennials and garden starts.
Atwater Bread: Organic sourdough and yeasted breads: Peasant Wheat, Caraway Rye, Cranberry Pecan, Kalamata Olive, traditional San Francisco Sourdough, Ciabatta, Country White, Chili Cheddar, French Baguette, Spelt, Sunflower Flax, and more. Brownies, cookies, scones, muffins, and granola.
Groff’s Content Farm: 100% grass-fed and -finished lamb and beef, pastured Berkshire pork, beautiful pastured eggs. Pre-order poultry.
Keswick Creamery: raw milk cheeses, blue cheese, feta, ricotta, quark, yogurt, and chocolate pudding.
Painted Hand Farm: humanely raised, grass-fed rose veal and goat meat. Ask her about the veal industry and why you don’t want to buy veal from anyone else. All cuts: shanks, chops, ground, scaloppini, breakfast link goat sausage, hot and sweet Italian veal sausage, traditional German-style Bratwurst (veal and pork).
Cherry Glen Goat Cheese Company: This is their off week, but if you must have some, they’ll be down at the 14th & U market.
Look forward to seeing you this Saturday! Please bring your own bags for shopping.
