Boulder Farmer's Market Today

It's another warm, fine day for cruising today's Boulder Farmer's Market, open 8 to 2 pm. Here's the fresh produce you're likely to see, from the market's current newsletter. It's an ever-growing list as we head into the height of summer, with lots of tomato and squash varieties. Corn hasn't made the list yet, but the Farmer's Market tweeted on Thursday that you should find it if you get there early enough. A stampede probably expected over the first corn of the season. Drama at the produce stands, who knew?
