May 26, 2007 Farmer's Market


"Spring is the most busy and hurrying season of any in the year." Samuel Deane, The New England Farmer, 1790. Well, it seems things have not changed at all on the farm since 1790. Anyways, the Memorial Day weekend usually finds us with our heaviest workload during the growing season. Our cold, deep valley soils are finally warming up enough to begin transplating out the summer crops, plus we are starting to find significant amounts of items to harvest. For the market this week
we will have the following:
*Mesclun
*Kale
*French Sorrel
*Baby Carrots
*Baby Beets
*Mini Romaine Lettuce
*Mini Butterhead Lettuce
*Fresh Lavender
*Arugula- 3 types
*Italian Dandelion
*Mangetout Peas
*Southern Curled Mustard
