It was a gorgeous day and a great opening for the Greenfield Farmers Market. There were lots of vendors and a remarkable array of products for sale - including more vegetables than you might think. I spotted a couple of new vendors, as well.
We came home with: eggs, bread, feta, goat cheese, black currant cordial (more on this in a future post), mixed greens, potatoes, asparagus, ramps, ground lamb, and a rosemary plant to replace the one I managed to kill over the winter (yes, it was inside). Among the other vegetables I saw available were carrots, celeriac, chard, kale, sorrel, scallions, and leeks. I was hoping for radishes but didn't spot any - though I was able to pull the first few from our garden this evening. There was also beef and pork, other kinds of cheese, maple products, honey, jam, and a variety of crafts. Plus loads of starts and bedding plants. Yippee! I do love the farmers market.
New businesses in town, Greenfield Coffee and Raven Books, right across the common from the market, were taking advantage of the foot traffic to welcome new customers with free coffee and tea and some free kids books respectively.
