Looks like a decent morning to get out to the Farmers' Market before showers move in (plus real rain for tomorrow and Monday). I'm so looking forward to picking up green garlic, pea shoots, and various leafy greens for a risotto tonight. Will try to time it to walk a block west for Alfalfa's B'Earthday celebration that runs 11 to 4 (Farmers' Market 8 to 2) to get a bit of prosciutto or smoked ham and some fresh cheese to add to that dish. Here's the word from the Farmers' Market on what to expect today:
In Season This Week:
green garlic, radishes, arugula, mizuna, spinach, lettuce, spicy greens, parsnips, pea shoots, tulips, greenhouse tomatoes, and greenhouse cucumbers. Herbs available will include freshly cut basil, chives, mint, and cilantro. Throughout the spring, vendors will have locally-raised garden starts and hanging baskets of flowers, strawberries and herbs, ready for your garden. All season long, you will find eggs, beef, lamb, goat, pork, locally-made cheeses, and mushrooms.
