Green beans are back!
Let’s all remember to celebrate “National Farmer’s Market Week” by coming out and continuing to support your local farmer! We will be at the market from 8-1 on Saturday under the pavilion on the corner of Bank and Market streets in beautiful downtown New Albany, Indiana.
Tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes…. what a bounty we have right now. We will have many varieties too choose from; Cherokee Purple, German Pink, Mr. Stripie,Super Beefsteak, Carolina Gold… just to name a few. Stop by and see Kenny’s unique collection, a fine selection to suit most any tomato connoisseur.
Green beans are back! The plans are to have corn again this weekend as well, Kenny’s eggplants are beautiful right now and there are going to be several different varieties this week. We will have new potatoes, okra, zucchini – both green and golden, summer squash, as well as “candy” onions, Swiss chard, cucumbers, green peppers, jalapenos, mixed hot peppers, cherry tomatoes, etc…
Peaches are still available but are beginning to slow down in abundance. We hope to have some through August depending on the weather. We are having a great melons harvest… watermelons and cantaloupes and they are both delicious! One of his most beautiful melons is imagination. This near black watermelon shines like a bowling ball and has a deep red flesh. It’s absolutely gorgeous to display, and it sells itself with its delicious taste.
If anyone wants to pre-order to have their fruit and veggies ready for pick up, just e-mail me and let me know early Friday. I will have your order ready when you arrive Saturday morning (that way you can sleep in, work out or just plain work and still get what you want before we run out).
Don’t forget we have farm-fresh, free-range eggs available; pick some up at the market Saturday.
Thanks for your patronage,
Val & Kenny
From the farm this morning…
