FW: [Farmers-market] Farmers' Market at Harvard Newsletter

From: Farmers-market [mailto:farmers-market-bounces+rryals=comcast.net@calists.harvard.edu] On Behalf Of Denison, Louisa Sent: Monday, July 09, 2012 4:33 PM To: Farmers-market@calists.harvard.edu Subject: [Farmers-market] Farmers' Market at Harvard Newsletter http://gallery.mailchimp.com/08419d78eda1f7d83181c3011/images/image_13418655 633421341865563.jpg Farmers' Market at Harvard Newsletter What's ripe at the market? Corn, peaches, tomatoes, cucumbers, favas, green & wax beans, eight-ball summer squash, blueberries, raspberries, beets, lettuce, peas, kale, collard greens, chard, and garlic - and more! Our rotating vendor is Stow Greenhouses. Barb and Dave grow beautiful hybrid lilies and other cut flowers in Stow, MA. They bring a beautiful product to market, they don't use pesticides, and their lilies arrive to the market in the bud. Just like vegetables and fruit that are picked green to survive long distances, so are most imported lilies picked green to survive their travel. Lucky for us, Barb and Dave grow their lilies close by, so that they can bring the lilies to market just as they're about to bloom. Our bi-weekly vendors are C&C Lobster, Samira's Homemade, and Valicenti Organico. At the market manager table
