Farmers Market


A drizzly, windy day found the vendors at the Three Rivers Farmers Market hanging tarps behind their stalls in the Farmers Market Pavilion. Lots of apples in bushel baskets, Northern Spy, Cortland, and some other heirloom varieties, along with chestnuts, squash, and all sorts of pumpkins. Worth braving the chill for!

Here are some of the Amish baked goods and pickles also on sale. Next to this table, a couple sells their own local farm-raised meats.

Your pictures make me glad I'm heading that way, even if I'm packing my rain boots and gloves!

Looks wonderful--yr making me HUNGRY!

I remember northern spies from childhood--haven't seen them in a while.

Northern Spy and Pippin are my favorite for pie. I never saw Northern Spies in California.

Oh well, could only be good: they have my favorite jam, rhubarb!

That looks so good! Our local farmers' market is over for the season and we already miss it. It was held just down the street from our house. :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog and your nice comments.

How romantic I find it to learn the varieties of common fruit and vegetables that other people are accustomed to. I do not know Northern Spy at all but have read of Pippin. Here in Sydney we have varieties like: Jonathan, Pink Lady, Delicious, Granny Smith, and Bonza.

Thank you for visiting my blog and for your kind comment.
