Boulder Farmers' Market This Afternoon

Just a reminder that the Wednesday Boulder Farmers' Market starts in a few minutes at 4 on this crisp, kind of fall-like day. Look below for the list of veggies, herbs, and fruits you can expect to find today, from the Market's current newsletter. Sigh, I do think the list is starting to get shorter, possibly because those four little words under Vegetables, "winter squash (many varieties)" represent our looming fate as we head into fall. At least corn is still in the list, so my vote goes to enjoying the summer veggies while we still can. Fall doesn't start until Friday, regardless of how it feels today, and there'll be plenty of months ahead to eat that butternut squash.
