Farming like there’s a tomorrow

What’s at Market? Week of July 13th

July 14th, 2008 Posted in General Randomness

Today finally felt like a summer harvest day. It was hot and muggy, and we picked Green Beans, Zucchini, Eggplant, Potatoes, and a bunch of Strawberries. That sounds like summer to me. Around 4 this afternoon smoke from a California fire rolled into the valley- you couldn’t see the hills behind the farm. That sounds like summer to me.

This week at market:

  • Arugula
  • Rooted Basil !!!!
  • Beets
  • Green Beans
  • Braising Mix
  • Broccoli
  • Scallions
  • Cabbage
  • Cauliflower
  • Carrots
  • Chard
  • Collards
  • Cucumbers
  • Eggplant
  • Kale
  • Pearl Drop Onions
  • Sweet Onions
  • PArsley
  • Strawberries
  • Fingerling Potatoes
  • Salad Mix
  • Tomatoes
  • Zucchini

So I’m hoping everyone can find something in that list that they like to eat.

If you haven’t heard, this Saturday the Ashland Market begins. Yep, it’s actually going to be a reality. Very exciting. It will be at the new parking lot across from the Post Office in downtown. The hours are 9 am - 1pm. We’re very interested to see what comes of the Saturday market and how it affects (or doesn’t) the Tuesday market. The best part of the whole thing is how many folks that can’t make it during the week will be able to attend. Tell your friends! Tell your enemies! Tell everyone you know that eats. We’ll be there with food, and so will others.

See you at market,

Chris, Melanie, and Demian
