What's At The Market?

Shoppers At The Beaver Farmers' Market
We had a fantastic morning for a stop at the Beaver Farmers' Market.  The temperature had dropped from the 90's earlier this week and there were lots of shoppers grabbing up fresh veggies. 
Oak Spring Farm Peas
We picked up some nice small yellow crookneck squash & Bibb lettuce from Douds Floyd Farm and 2 containers of edible pod peas from Oak Spring Farm.  LFLF was away this week in Houston where the temperatures were lower (!) than they were here.  We came home to find one of the basil plants that we got last weekend in pretty bad shape .... luckily it hadn't reached what is known as the "permanent wilt" point, so it has been revived.  Good for us since we'll use some of it to saute with the squash.
