Farmers Market 9/13/12

September 13, 2012 by Elisabeth Norris 4 Comments

Back to our regularly scheduled program today! After any time away, even if it is just two weeks, it is really fascinating to see how the season is moving along. Grapes are every where in the market now. Cherry tomatoes are gone, but the price of heirlooms are starting to come down. The big fruit vendors have less variety. But I spied guava, kumquats, and a few items I have no clue as to what they are!

Things were pretty barren because we just got back from another trip so I went for a little bit of everything.

Farmers Market 8/16/12

California is most certainly having an amazing fruit this summer. The cantaloup I picked up last week was like liquid sugar. And the peaches are out of the world right now. Hence why I picked up quite a few more… though half of those are going in a tart.

  • Yellow peaches
  • Red plums

And in the vegetable department… well I’m getting a little bored. Not so much in the produce but in the fact that I’m not doing anything interesting with it. I certainly hemed and hawed at the market this morning. Gotta work on this whole meal planning thing. One thing was for certain though, I was getting more heirloom tomatoes! Prices dropped by .50 cents all across the market. It is only a matter of time before end of season hits and everyone is trying to get rid of the tomatoes for dirt cheap! The rest is just a mishmash of produce that I’m not sure what I will do with in the coming week.

  • Corn
  • Thai eggplant
  • Yellow onions
  • Red onions
  • Heirloom tomatoes
  • Japanese sweet potatoes
  • Leeks
  • Sweet chili peppers
  • Thai chili peppers
