The First Market

  The first Farmer's Market of the year has come and gone!!!!  Since this was our first Market ever, we didn't know what to expect.  With the Market opening so early, we were limited on items for sale.  We only had a few Romaine and Black Seeded Simpson lettuces and a variety of tomato seedlings. 

  I was pleasantly surprised to meet several followers of the blog at the Market...........Thanks again!!!!

  Another surprise was my idea to grow the lettuces in containers and bring the containers to the Market.  This allowed the customer to pick the head they wanted and it was harvested for them right there.  The few containers that were not sold, were taken back to the farm and we will offer them for sale at the next Market.  This solves the dilemma of "How much do you cut???"!  There's no waste thus allows us to keep the prices lower!!!!

  For this week's Market, we will have the following "Certified Naturally Grown" items:

    baby romaine lettuce, baby Black Seeded Simpson lettuce, Mizuna (an Asian Green), tomato seedlings (many of them heirloom varieties), and we will have a special price on cayenne pepper seedlings!

  Thanks again for all the support and I hope to see you this week at the Market!!!
