It’s going to be another beautiful day for the market this Saturday… stop by for more sweet corn, green beans and home grown tomatoes… a few heirlooms and just plain ole red ones. We are just about finished bringing canning tomatoes, so if you need any for your home canning this year please let us know.
Swiss chard is still on hiatus, but will be returning in a few weeks. We will have plenty kale as your greens this week. Also… new potatoes, beets, cucumbers, zucchini, cabbage, yellow squash, green peppers, and eggplant. Kenny will be bringing more candy onions and a wide variety of peppers, mild and really hot ones.
Winter squashes are ready, we will have some available starting this weekend. Those who have gotten baskets lately have already seen a few, everyone else will get their chance this Saturday. We will have butternut, acorn and spaghetti this week and buttercups in a few more weeks.
Peaches done for the season, we will have some for our baskets this week. Apples are just about ready, I may pick a few for this week depending on their sugar content. Mutzu’s are still a good week or two away.
We now offer our “Baskets of the Week” every Saturday. If you are in need or want one please email me by noon Friday, val@russellveggies.com. The prices will remain the same as last year…$16 for the small ones and $32 for the half bushel size. It takes lots of planning to make these happen, they are done fresh Saturday morning and are pre-order only.
We will have more of our homemade goodies along with Kenny’s Grilling Planks and Blackening Spice. I also still have a few fairy wands available for your patio plants or indoor pots.
Don’t forget to pick up your farm-fresh, free-range eggs while available, just a reminder that we sell out early.
Have a great week and we will see you on Saturday,
Val & Kenny
