Market Reminder!

It’s that time again; time to make sure you get your order in before The Market closes tomorrow morning at 7:30. Even if you’ve already ordered for this week, with new crops rolling in all the time, you may want to take another look around!

What’s New:

Green Acres Atkins is gearing up for a great summer with the addition of Certified Organic black seeded simpson, yellow summer squash, and green tomatoes. If, like me, you can’t stop thinking about delicious, ripe tomatoes, these green Big and Betterboys may be just the thing to tide you over. Grilled, fried, or salsafied, green tomatoes are always a successful southern crowd pleaser.

Speaking of green tomatoes, the last batch of tomato plants from ABC Nature Greenhouse & Herb Farm have come pre-equipped with a few of their own. Previously confused by a long winter and cool spring, it seems that garden transplants everywhere are in agreement that it’s finally time to get in the ground. If you have room for a few more pepper and tomato plants, order up before it’s too late. Most pepper and tomato plants are now only $0.50! Consider buying a few to give to a friend, neighbor, or donate to a community garden. Who wouldn’t love the gift of fresh veggies all summer long?
