Farmer's Market

[omly]

We saw anotherjen briefly at the Davis Farmer's market yesterday. Sometimes I wonder if I am not more recognizable solely by the child in orbit around me.

We got some good stuff there: 2 sugar pumpkins, a giant butternut squash, gingergold apples, parsnips, sungold tomatoes, and a just a regular slicing tomato. I got the butternut just because of bbbsg's Baked Squash and Bean Soup sounds so good. I have no real plans for the pumpkin beyond toasting the seeds, but it is that time year. Ideas? I was thinking pumpkin soup, but that seemed a little to close to the squash soup to do close together.

The apples and tomatoes are just Tab and Roger's favorites. They will be sad once I can no longer get them for the season.

When are they and at what time? I live so close now that there's no reason not to go :)

There is a fabulous one in Arlington Center (on Rte 60 but behind the main plaza on Mass Ave) and another decent one in Davis Square (on the corner of Day St and Orchard St). You can go here (http://www.mass.gov/agr/massgrown/farmers_markets.htm) for the full list of farmers markets. You will probably want to look at Middlesex, Suffolk and Norfolk Countires depending on which area you prefer.

That is probably my favorite one though it is a little smaller than some of the others. More was posted about it here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/omly/52934.html) by me a while ago.
