Greetings from Seattle, while I am here visiting the newest little one to our family, Kenny is home working in the gardens and greenhouse. When I talked with him yesterday he told me he planted 400 garlic for next year and asked me to bring home some “Elephant Garlic” for him to plant too. I learned while out here that Oregon grows some wonderful garlic so I picked him up a couple of pounds.
The veggies are beginning to dwindle but we still have some to bring to the market. We will have fresh GREENS…mustard, turnip, kale and even possibly more spinach. Fresh baby lettuce will be available and I even think the new patch with arugula is ready to cut.
Kenny is going to hold off picking the green beans until next weekend so our customers can have fresh green beans for Thanksgiving. We still have tomatoes as well as potatoes…red,white and sweet potatoes, cabbage, onions, acorn and butternut squash. A few peppers may still be available also.
If anyone needs produce and would like me to make them a basket to have ready, just e-mail me and let me know early in the day Friday. I will have your order ready when you arrive on Saturday morning.
Thanks for supporting us with your purchases at the market,
Val & Kenny
P. S. Don’t forget to pick up your farm-fresh, free-range eggs at the market as well. We have chicken, quail and now duck eggs available.
