It’s Canning Season!
It’s hard to consider canning when we’ve been dealing with so much heat, but the temps are forecasted to drop to more bearable temperatures. This week OSU Master Preservers will be here to test pressure canner gauges and if canning isn’t your thing, we have good news. Pam’s Pickled Products is back with delicious, pickled veggies and relishes so you can save yourself from the work!
The market has been vibrant and colorful as it boasts the bright colors and flavors of summer. Stone fruits are in season, and we saw our first crop of peaches this past Saturday, in addition to ALL the berries. Marionberry season is quick so you will want to make sure and purchase Oregon’s quintessential fruit this week.
Cucumbers, tender and crisp summer squash and the first of tomatoes are showing up in farmer’s stalls along with loads of sweet carrots, red potatoes and flavorful leafy greens. Bring an extra shopping bag because you will need it!
This Saturday we’re partnering with Clackamas Free Clinic (located right next to our market) for their Health Fair. You can read more details in this newsletter but if yoga under the shade trees and information on lifestyle medicine sounds up your alley, you will want to be here!
Finally, we have a long list of vendors who have been off for a week or two and are returning this Saturday. We’ve provided a full list PLUS a link where you can see our entire list of attending vendors.
Find us each Saturday from 9am-2pm at Clackamas Community College’s GREEN LOT 1 here in Oregon City (we are off the corner of S Beavercreek Rd and Clairmont Drive)
See you at the market! |
