We had perfect weather at the market today!  It has been rainy for the past few weeks. We are seeing the last of the tomatoes, corn and berries.  Vendors had leeks, onions, pepper, salad mix greens, herbs (and herb teas as well!), LOTS of baked items, pumpkins, potatoes (irish and sweet), eggs, cheese, lots of crafts showing up now!  We had corn husk dolls, sorghum and broom corn seed heads.
If you're not able to visit with us at our market...please, go out and visit your local Farmers' Market...you'll be glad you did!

This week at the market was very wet!  There was still a good turn-out of customers.
More fall crops coming in!  We had Jerusalem Artichokes and their beautiful bright flowers for cut bouquets.  Our Shiitake Mushrooms are finally coming in...we have the fall variety.  We had more Sugar Pie pumpkins, potatoes, onions, tomatoes and blueberries.
Other vendors still had corn, eggplant, garlic, pepper.  Leeks coming in.
Besides the wonderful vegetables there were the canned foods and bakes items.
There are many talented craftsmen in our area and they come out with their crafts.  Christmas is coming soon so, everyone think "Local" when you buy gifts and support your local crafts...or better yet make your own!!
We will soon be offering natural non-cosmetic grade mica (from our farm) for sale in our Local Harvest store.  This is great as an additive for soaps.

Last weeks' market showed a sign of fall.  Root crops such as irish potatoes, sweet potatoes and turnips were at the market.  We had pumpkins...the Sugar Pie pumpkins are in and they make wonderful pies.  The roasted seeds are delicious too!  We'll have the Snack Jacks' for next Wednesdays' market.  The Jerusalem Artichokes are looking good too.
Tomatoes are about over for most of the farmers' around here...the late blight hit hard.  It also hit our cantaloupes...hope to salvage some though!
We have fresh corn leaves for wraps and hope to have banana leaves for next Wednesdays' market.
Just gathered some green Oxacana "dent" corn and broom corn to dry for Falls' decorating time.  We'll be making swags and brooms from the broom corn and will have those in the store to sell.  Will gather the Bloody Butchers' corn to dry some next week.  We hope to leave some in the field to dry naturally to use for grinding and making into breads.
