Market Menu January 24, 2015

Candy carrots with great flavor and sweetness. Just before the great freeze-up we had several hard frosts and that is just what the doctor ordered to turn normally sweet carrots into something magical. We will have a few bags of juicing carrots each week during the late fall and winter.

We will have about 20 pie pumpkins at market this week.

The squash varieties available this week:  Acorn, Butternut, Carnival. Spaghetti, and Pie Pumpkins.

Wonderful Garlic Crop This Year
Reed took this picture of garlic a few weeks ago, and it's one of the best tasting crops we've had! I guess those minerals in the compost bring out the exceptional flavor and quality. The heads are nice and big, with cloves about the size of your thumb. As always, organic and fresh. Reed planted the garlic for next year during MEA break.

We will have the following items at the Farmers Market for Saturday, January 10, 2015 (New items are in Bold Print)

Chipolini Onions
Sweet Spanish Onions
