LFLF Goes To Somerset!

A Beautiful Saturday Under The Shelters At The Somerset County Farmers' Market!
LFLF was making a trip to Bedford County on Saturday and I took the opportunity to stop in and visit old friends!  After spending half an hour in construction traffic in Pittsburgh - grrrrr - we only had about 20 minutes to dash through the market.

Remember, based on elevation, Somerset County is about 2 weeks behind the Pittsburgh area in addition to everything being about 2 weeks behind after the long, cold winter.  The farmers told me that this was their 1st really good market day of the season.  They finally felt like they had enough veggies & fruit to put some choices out on their tables.  Wish I'd had more time to chat ... I know some are using season extending high tunnels & greenhouses ...
Smiling Faces At Grandma's Produce!
Grandma's Produce is one of the founding members of the SCFM - also, check out the t-shirts from the market.  We saw them in bright gold and in gray ... need to get one of those!
Nice Selection of Maple Products
We'll finish our visit with another post ... even with sprinting through the market, LFLF managed to get more pics!  Until then ....  :)
