It's a Spicy and Garlicky Week

This week has been hot and wet which has caused several issues. We will have a few bunches of radishes that have not bolted nor split. We've been using shade cloth to slow down the bolting but nothing can stop all this water. There will be a Spicy Stir Fry Mix Consisting of  Radish Greens, Bok Choi Greens and flowers and Kale. We got about 145 tomato plants put in before all the rain started. So I guess that's something. While we weren't looking, the Garlic Scaped, so there will be Scapes on offer, along with the last of the Ramps. There will be Green Onions, mixed with a few Egyptian Walking onions. Our Forager's Salad Mix this week has Lettuce, Lambsquarter, Wood Sorrel, baby Kale, Spinach, Swiss Chard, Mustard, Arugula, Mache and Chickweed. We still have a lot of Duck Eggs coming in and Chicken eggs too. There will be Tomato Plants for 2 more weeks and then, whatever is left over will be planted into our field. We'll have about 30 varieties to choose from for your own garden. Cherokee Green and Purple, Black from Tula, Arkansas Traveler, Pantano Romanesco, Caspian Pink, Mortgage Lifter, Pink Girl, Lemon Boy, Black Krim, Paul Robeson, Pork Chop, Violet Jasper, Black Plum, Sweet 100, Principe Borghese, Amish Paste, Golden Jubilee, Juliet, Yellow Pear and others. 
We ran out of our Award winning(Riverfront Times) Lemonade last night so we will be bringing extra for tomorrows hot day, also Green Tea with Jasmine and Robin's local honey. Stop by our booth for a cup of either for only 2.00 a cup. It's the best deal at the market. We haven't raised our price in 13 years. 
We'll see you at Tower Grove tomorrow from 8 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. 

God's Blessings on you and yours, 

TTFN, 

Sam and Bill
