Tomorrow morning will feel very strange for many of us. The farmers are used to bringing their goodies to the market and setting up. The customers are used to seeing those smiling farmers faces. Unfortunately, our last Saturday market for the 2013 season was last week. We'll miss everyone and we hope that you will be missing us.
Don't think that our farmers are not working and taking time off. They are planting their fields with cover crops, ordering seeds for spring planting and in some cases...planting items that need the winter to grow, like garlic!
Now is the time to speak up and let our farmers know what you would like to see next year...especially for the spring crops! Was there enough lettuce? Did you find plenty of spring greens? How many times did you miss out on onions and radishes? Was there something that you wanted but never saw at the market? Please comment and let us know. The only way we can grow better for you, our customers, is if we know what you want! Good, bad or otherwise...comments are appreciated.
Stay tuned for more recipes, news and general comments all winter long. The market might be closed for the season but we are still going strong until we open again in April, 2014!

We'll be set up in the beautiful tree lined parking lot of Pedal the Planet and Fast Signs, right next door to the Glenn Auto Mall on Richmond Rd. It's just a hop, skip and a jump outside of Man 'O War Blvd. Parking is right there so you don't have to drive around hunting for a spot to park. The parking lot is also paved and that makes it very stroller and wheelchair friendly!
