Arrived Before the Rain!

The rain held off for at least the first hour at the Beaver Farmers' Market on Saturday. There were plenty of people and the booths were loaded with produce, baked goods, & cut flowers. There were mums and lots of decorative gourds, pumpkins, Indian corn, & corn stalks. The booth above gets my vote for best decorated booth of the market today!
Here's what it looks like from the farmers' point of view ..... lots of happy customers filling their bags.We spotted one young woman with one of those chest style coolers on wheels that you pull around like a wagon. She could have been a chef .....who knows?


Even the Penn State Cooperative Extension folks were there doing a squash cooking demonstration. The food smelled really great ..... garlic in one recipe & brown sugar in another. I'm planning to try the "Spaghetti Squash Delight" recipe on the right hand plate ...... use the orange colored spaghetti squash to get the "look" & the added benefit of higher beta-carotene.
