Our Farmer’s Market has changed venues! Last week was the first week, but I was travelling home that day and didn’t get home in time for the market. However, I was able to make it this week. Wow! There were so many vendors and people, it was great to see so much support for the market! It was a little overwhelming to take it all in, but I managed to narrow it down to a few good finds and then we headed out.
3 lb bag of organic Jonamac apples from English Family Orchard in Willcox, $5. They are small, but the perfect snack size for my girls since they take about 5 bites out of the big apples and stop.
2 lbs of leeks and 2 pounds of potatoes from Beatty’s Apple Orchard, $6 total. I started at only 1 pound, but Dale has been begging for Potato Leek Soup, so we got 2 lbs. It’s not enough potatoes, but I’ll get more when I head to the grocery store soon.
2 lbs cucumbers, 4 onions, 2 dozen eggs (not pictured), Tea Tree Lemon scented goat milk soap, and Tea Tree Lemon scented lotion from Basic Farm 7, $19. I should be set on eggs for a while! The cucumbers I’ll be making into pickles.
Fresh rosemary, $1. I can’t remember which stand I got it at, but am all out of rosemary, so I’m glad I found it!
Excited to go again next week and see what all I can find!
