The first farmer’s market of the season, Pinecrest Gardens Green Market, will open from 9 am to 2 pm this Sunday, November 7th in front of Pinecrest Gardens.
Redland Organics will be there of course, with lots of good things to eat. Farmer Margie said that she will have: rooted Italian basil, thai basil, three kinds of cucumbers (Kirby, slicing and Asian), pattypan squash, lemon grass, curry leaf, garlic chives, lettuce, arugula,salad mix, grape tomatoes, choquette avocados, persimmons, savoy spinach, mizuna, fennel, dill, parsley, scallions, radishes, zucchini, yellow squash, eggplant, and two kinds of turnips (Scarlet Queen and white Asian). Most of the vegetables are from participating grower Worden Farms up in Punta Gorda, and the rest is from Bee Heaven Farm and various growers in Redland.
The Green Market will be open on Sundays through May 28. There’s plenty of market parking at the Gardens. (Please be careful not to park on the grassy swales where signs say No Parking, or you run the risk of getting a ticket.)
