LFLF is back home again & shopping at the Saturday morning Beaver Farmers' Market. Everybody has peppers right now. We are not hot pepper fans, but maybe you are! The colors are fantastic and I trust that the flavor is too. I've seen this farmer sell half bushels of the cherry hots to customers .... wonder what they do with them?
On a less adventurous note, we came home with Macintosh apples, apple cider, potatoes, brownies, basil, and our favorite heirloom tomatoes.
We talked with another local farmer last week at their farmstand and it looks like sweetcorn is done for the season for most growers. It has been so dry this summer that the corn planted for the late season didn't do well unless it was irrigated. Most small farmers here aren't set up for that and in most years would never need it anyway.
