Flurries At Market!

What a morning at the Beaver Farmers' Market.  If you weren't in the mood for the holidays, the snow flurries should have fixed that!  We got our wreaths for the cemetaries, and by the looks of things, everyone else wanted wreaths and swags too.  The Volkars have lots of wreaths ready to go, or they will even do some customizing for you.  We have our wreaths wired firmly to the stands before we take them. 
Pat was braving the weather with her baked goods ..... here she is behind her sunglasses! 
Pat's Pastries - look at the Holiday packaging!
The last thing that LFLF picked up was a gallon of apple cider from Oak Spring Farm .... last pressing of the season ??????  We couldn't take the chance and wait until next weekend.

Beaver Market - Christmas Greens!

Customers Lined Up At Enon Country Gardens
It was an overcast morning for the Beaver Farmers' Market today, but there were still plenty of people there.  It seemed that everyone was after potatoes and apples for sure ..... in preparation for Thanksgiving?   LFLF got Jonagold apples for our pie selection.   We also saw one young woman snapping up bags of kale.  I bet it's just perfect at this time of the season!

Just around the corner from this group of customers were the Christmas wreaths and swags ..... more pictures next week.  Here are some of the squash that we picked up and the tomatoes that have now ripened at home from our last visit.  Enjoying salads & BLT's!

Beaver County Farmers' Markets Still Going!


Here are some of the dedicated shoppers at the Beaver Farmers' Market on Saturday.  LFLF got there a little late - "noonish"- after doing some other errands.  The number of vendors is shrinking as the season continues, but there is still a TON of produce available. The last of the tomatoes are ready for you to ripen at home.   A nice butternut squash, red potatoes, 4 tomatoes, and 5 lbs of apples came home with us. 
Pat had some nice nutrolls for sale and we know how much effort it takes to make them, so LFLF says why do it yourself????  Just get one at the market!  :)
