What’s at the market–Saturday 12 July
The market was overflowing with fresh fruit and vegetables this morning–there are a lot of vendors now, so you don’t have to get there quite so early.
- sugar snap/edible pod peas (these won’t be in season much longer)
- shelling peas
- new baby potatoes (tiny & medium-size)
- new baby carrots
- kohlrabi
- broccoli
- zucchini
- yellow onions
- beets
- swiss chard (red & white)
- jerusalem artichoke
- green cabbage
- purple cabbage
- asparagus
- rhubarb
- radishes
- baby cucumbers
- bell peppers
- tomatoes (field & greenhouse)
- English cucumbers
- lettuce
- spinach
- green onion
- fresh & potted herbs
- old crop carrots
- old crop potatoes
- Saskatoon berries
- regular eggs and duck eggs
…and more (I really need to take a notebook next time to write it all down)!
The BC fruit stand is open now! They had:
- apricots
- cherries (red and Rainier) $3.29/lb and absolutely delicious
- peaches (still rather small)
I am going to try and check out the Sunday market tomorrow to see who the regular vendors will be.
