What’s at Market? Week of September 13th

Ahhhhh fall. It was somewhat fun and interesting to have two days this past week over 100 degrees. But now it seems we’ve moved into a fall pattern. The veggies have moved into a fall pattern too.

We’re excited about two new crops we’re growing for the first time this year: Celery and Celery Root.

We hope you’ll give one or both a try and let us know what you think. It’s always fun to try new crops- especially when they work out.

Our summer crops are starting to come to an end. Tomatoes, Zucchini, Basil, and Cucumbers have a limited time left in the mix this season. Green Beans are done. But a pile of great fall food is on the way in the coming weeks:

Broccoli, Cauliflower, Turnips, Salad Turnips, Radishes, Winter Squash, Parsnips, Napa Cabbage,Baby Bok Choy just to name few.

Here’s what we’ll have this week at market:

• Arugula
• Basil
• Beets
• Stir Fry Mix
• Cabbage
• Carrots
• Chard
• Cilantro
• Collards
• Cucumbers (Armenian Cukes are back in full force this week!)
• Japanese Eggplant
• Garlic (The Red stripe continues- such a beautiful tasty garlic)
• Kales of many sorts
• Leeks
• Lettuce
