Peaches…already…Happy 4th!
Our wild weather ride this spring has brought the peaches in early and don’t think they are not sweet and tasty yet….’cause they ARE!!Both Maryhill Fruit Co. and Profarm have peaches now, ask for a taste, you won’t be disappointed. Lot’s of great produce to be had this week. One of our farms, Sun Love (Certified Naturally Grown …to organic standards and verified) grows produce on acreage in Oregon City. Melissa worked on an organic farm honing her growing skills for 5 years before purchasing her farmland off Forsythe Rd. Even though she is a one-woman show she produces some excellent produce! On her tables this week will be Carrots, Beets, new Potatoes, Squash, Cukes, Basil, Garlic and Kale….her popularity is growing too, so don’t delay, she may be sold out!
NW Ferments is back, with their Culture Kits and Packs, no reason now not to produce your own Sourdough bread, kefir, yogurt, kombucha and much more….Get Fermented this year, your gut will thank you. Not only do they sell the kits, grains and packs to get you started but also have books and supplies and produce the cutest videos out there. Come and chat with Sue and Wendy this Saturday and they’ll have kombucha to taste and buy too!

They use Whole Grain Duram Semolina grown in North Dakota and specialty grains grown in Washington State for their line of nutritional pasta’s such as farro, freekah and more. Stop by their booth, you’ll be amazed by the selection!Joining us too this week is Phlox and Figwort with smudges and incense and Marc’s Dreamwood Studios with beautifully hand-crafted wooden toys and games!
