Greetings from Coco Beach, Florida. Once again I am on the road (Kenny said… the last time until at least October) visiting with family. Rest assured Russell Veggies will be open for business bright and early Saturday morning at the New Albany Farmer’s Market. Kenny and Gary along with the rest of our crew will be hard at work taking care of our awesome patrons.
There will be NO pre-orders this week (that’s my department and I’m slacking my duties) but they will continue next week… uninterrupted thru September!
Available this week… Swiss chard, spinach, and kale. A variety of lettuce… Red Sails, Simpson Elite and Grand Rapids. Kenny will have radishes, green onions, asparagus, and rhubarb. If Kenny remembers to cut this week there will also be fresh mint. Strawberries should be ready for the Memorial weekend!
We will have plenty of fresh herbs and garden plants available this weekend. We have basil, dill, parsley, cilantro, oregano, thyme, sage, tarragon and rosemary. Kenny also has a nice variety of heirloom tomatoes, grape and cherry tomato plants.
Don’t forget to pick up your farm-fresh, free-range eggs at the market; we have quail eggs available as well.
Thanks for supporting us with your purchases at the market,
Val & Kenny
Reminder: My friend Valerie Shealy’s local honey will also be available this weekend.
