Not much to report from the market today. Didn’t really get much of a game plan for the next week so I stocked up on some staples and few items that are workable. Been using a lot more kale so I decided to buy 2 bunches instead of 1 for the week. We’ll see how…

Farmers Market 11/8/12
What bright crisp morning at the market today. After a nice little heat wave we are cooling back down to autumn weather. The seasonal change of the market is finally taking place. Apples, pears, and grapes are the front runners in fruit. Along with a heavy showing of persimmons and pomegranates. Noticed several vendors with…

No more raspberries at the market this week. Kind of wish I would have bought two flats last week rather than one. But I did get a great price on strawberries! Six bucks for half flat of organic/incredibly still sweet strawberries! Half of the flat has already been cleaned and chopped into small pieces and…

It was a nice surprise to find organic raspberries for $1 a basket! Hence, the flat! I don’t have an immediate use for them so most are going to be frozen to use for baking down the road. Om nom nom. Valencia oranges Yellow peaches Nectarines Raspberries! Nothing terribly exciting in the veggie department. Didn’t…

Thursday was such a bright and abundant day at the market. I truly do think it was due to the sun shining. The highlight was finding these awesome rustic/gnarly carrots and a purple cauliflower. I’m already thinking the cauliflower is going to be used for a soup that is heavily laden with goat cheese despite…
Farmers Market 2/9/12
I skipped last weeks market run. While it mostly came down to being tired from the days prior, I thought I might be able to stretch what was left for another week. I’ve not been happy with the amount of food waste I have had lately so my laziness was a good push use up…
