market time!

The Midtown Farmers Market re-opens in full for the year this Saturday, April 18!  We have loads of tender spinach and arugula, sweet crunchy turnips and radishes.  All the fresh eggs you can eat which are at their peak quality of the year with rich, deep orange yolks.  Probably the last of the over-wintered carrots - what remains are on the small side (think baby carrots) but we need to get them out of the ground to make room for new plantings of other crops.  And asparagus! everyone's favorite springtime treat.  We never seem to have as much asparagus as you all could eat, but it's all the asparagus I have room to grow. 

We are admittedly starting out the market season a little light on produce, but remember that we were still buried in snow and ice up through early March.  There are not too many vegetables that will go from seed to harvest in the four or five weeks since that time.  The quantity and variety that we have to offer will steadily increase from here on out though!

Your vegetable starts are looking great, and will be available for this weekend.  We're in the process of easing them all out of the greenhouse this week a bit at a time; getting them accustomed to the 'real world.'  They should be nice and sturdy and ready for your garden by Friday.  Check out the list of individual varieties here.  I do not have room on the truck for large quantities of every last variety, so if there's something you have your heart set on, or you're looking for large quantities of plants, let me know ahead of time and I'll be sure to pack up what you want to pick up at the farmers market.  Or take a nice drive out to the country, visit the the farm and pick out your own!  And know that if gardening isn't your thing, we're more than happy to grow all that and more for you.

Thanks so much for your business, eat well, and have a great week!
