What’s at the Market: Early October
By admin on Oct 11, 2010 in Home and Garden

The changing of the seasons brings a mixed bag of produce, so to speak. There are still late summer finds like plums resting next to the first batch of cool weather Brussels sprouts. I have a sort of internal tug-of-war going on when this happens…sad to see summer go but ready for the new cool, breezy weather.
Let’s see what is available……
Next
1 Purple and green cabbages
2 Bright orange squash and a siamese delicata squash
3 Gorgeous purple kohlrabi
4 Jerusalem artichokes aka sunchokes aka earth apple aka the edible tuber/root of a species of sunflower (DELICIOUS!)
5 Purple mustard greens
I love the rich, intense colors of late summer/early fall produce.
