While you’re waiting for your garden to come in, come get your fresh, ripe tomatoes and wide variety mustard greens at Pete’s Greens; watercress, lamb’s quarters, and nettles at Le Page Farm; salad greens at Owl Hill Farm and Screamin Ridge Farm; fresh herbs including basil, dill, thyme, and mint from a number of the vendors; beautiful bouquets of phlox, lupine, and sweet William at Fools Farm Flowers, and much, much more.
Still wanting to plant more food in your garden? You can still get your vegetable and herb starts, perennial and annual bedding plants, and flower baskets at the market.
And as always, we have a variety of delicious prepared foods each week and beautiful crafts for sale.
