Farmers Market Gearing up for Fun

As I prepare to go to the market today I think about the seasons. With the weather this year they haven't been as evident as usual (even for the unpredictable patterns we have here in Missouri), yet the crops come in fairly on schedule. Last week everyone was searching for tomatoes and peppers, not quite yet though, hopefully another week or so and we will see them start to come on strong. The cucumbers and onions have been fantastic, as the rain hydrates and the sun gives intense flavors. I look for this year to have wonderful flavors and what appears to be a strong tomato crop. I hope everyone can make it to the two great markets we have in town.

Wednesday at the FFA Pavilion 8am-12PM
Thursday at the Plaza Galleria parking Lot 2:30-close
