Good Stuff At Sewickley Farmers' Market!

Exchange At The Sewickley Farmers' Market!
LFLF went to the Sewickley Farmers' Market this morning specifically to get some notecards from the Karen Sandorf Gallery.  Her email blast said she'd be there under the green striped umbrella, so mission accomplished.  We picked out some new cards that include native Pawpaw & Sugar Maple illustrations & recipies.   The Sewickley market is known for having an ecclectic collection of goodies and today did not disappoint!  We got some great biscotti & lady locks, then headed around the market picking up produce.
Clarion River Organics Heirloom Tomato Selection
We picked up some red & yellow organic pear tomatoes from Clarion River Organics.   You can just see the beautiful eggplants and squash blossoms with their Heirloom Tomatoes in the picture above.
Ground Cherries & Tomatillos From Clarion River Organics
LFLF came home with some staple veggies - sweet corn, green peppers, cucumbers, & garlic.
Of course, the garlic was a world of it's own too! We came across a wonderful display of garlic varieties from Enon Valley Garlic.

When you buy a clove, it's packed in a little paper bag with the variety name written on it. Many customers buy this locally raised garlic to plant in their own gardens.  LFLF selected "Polish" garlic today ........
