What a great kick-off to our 2012 Joseph Farmers' Market season! Our local favorite Homemade Jam kept the market square a toe-tapping, bright place to be despite the threatening weather. Only a few raindrops actually fell - easily brushed off with the hot Red Horse Bakery coffee and cheery conversation. It was so good to see everybody at the Market!
For those of you who missed all the incredible produce and flower plant
starts, Backyard Gardens and Flower Peddler will both be back next
Saturday, June 2nd. Beth Gibans invites you all to starting planting,
"We still have lots of transplants ready for a good home! Tomatoes
(over 40 varieties!), eggplants, peppers, basil, lettuces, kale, chard,
parsley, nasturtiums, gem marigold, and calendula all need good
homes." In addition, Backyard Gardens already has a great variety of
produce ready to eat: arugula, kale, salad mix, spinach, stir fry and
local honey. YUM!
We've got your favorite vendors all line up
including Sally B. Farms, Gilstrap Brothers Winery, and the ever popular
Wallowa Country Kettle Korn. New this week are specialty vendors: jeweler Susan Collette from
Wallowa Mountain Studio and artisan baker Heather Frei with gourmet dog treats! What's better than old favorites and new friends? Old favorites and new friends AND hot coffee with homemade cookies! We'll see you Saturday!
