Good Morning,
Wow! Welcome to the world of lovely weather. Enjoy every minute and atom of it. Sort of a reward for making it this far in the struggles of 2020. We're glad to see you on Saturday mornings, and hope you are having fun planning and making and eating meals (and snacks and treats) from all the good food we've got here.
That special fall feeling is here, part end of summer sorrow, part delight at the advent of all that says autumn. Still some good deals on tomatoes for processing, melons are bright, celery robust, husk cherries just ripening. Greens galore!
Next week we'll update our share and buying plan list to reflect those that are available in winter.
Apples will be here soon: don't worry - just enjoy that thrill when Larry pulls out the first ones!

Kinder Kraut at Gracies Garden is a fast seller, and actually big with kinder!
From our vendors -Sales, Seasonal, Specials
Hawkes is offering up late summer strawberries-this is definitely a VERY FIRST STOP & GET THERE EARLY IF YOU WANT SOME. item. Look for more corn too, hopefully and their "Crazy Hot Peppers".
Maiitake, King Oyster, and Crimini mushrooms were last weeks picks. Piper can show you what's in the bags if you're not sure. Mushrooms have a definite place on my "weekly essentials" list.
Robin Chase is pleased to announce the Debut of this years pumpkin and cider doughnut crop, A delicious sign of the season at Chase Farm..

Just enough heat to get your attention, this Queso Fresco at Hahn's End is perfect for Tex Mex specialties. |
Fuzzy Udder is well stocked with Sheeps milk yogurt, fresh cows milk, and sweet Italian Mutton sausage. Plenty of ways to add variety to your diet and explore some thing new..
At Jyang_Lee, Angelas's son was tending the store last week. He votes for the Orange Ginger Sauce on just about anything. She was home, relaxing by cooking up more sauces, as they have been moving quickly.
That preserving fool Amy at Old Narrow Gauge has some fine batches of her pickled garlic; try spicy - great holiday gift for fans of kick a** flavor.

Parsley, sage, thyme, and, and, - this herb bouquet at Mindful Garden is a Very Useful Item. |
Beryl of Beryl's started with her deeply chocolate Sables when asked about her
favorite cookie. She noted that she bakes "only what I like to eat", Lucky us.
Herbal Mouthwash at Mana Medicinals, is fragrant with Calendula, Echinacea, and Peppermint. It will "strengthen your immune system too" notes Anna: "just swish and swallow!" A twofer. indeed
Ann Springhorn, showing her pretty watercolor note cards at MicroMainea, encourages you to select your own packet of 5 for a discounted ratet .

Fresh Rosemary and excellent crumb make these Rosemary rolls a crowd pleaser. At Borealis
Larry at Pleasant Pond Orchard had some nice Clapp Pears last week
ones at half as well as perfectly fine just slightly misshapen seconds at half price.. Deal? I was happy. , Some more this week, maybe next. And apples are on the way.
A good sized mixed herb bouquet caught the eye at Mindful Gardens last week-easier sometimes than buying several big ones,
Baskets are high demand; if you have something in mind, order it now.
Grabbed a loaf of Pumpernickel Rye with Caraway at Hootenanny last week. Such full flavor, hearty, not heavy, good for sandwiches, soups, a surprising partner to light Indian curries and dahls.
