Farmers Market Open for 2011!

The Fayette County Farmers Market officially opens at 7 AM June 4 at the pavillion in front of Dan Buckley Gym. 

Sputt will be there with five varieties of the best onions he has ever grown:
  • Contessa (a white sweet onion)
  • Yellow Granex (same as that FAMOUS sweet Georgia onion....)
  • Texas Sweet (large sweet yellow onion)
  • Candy (another yellow sweet)   and
  • Red Candy (just waiting on a hamburger!) 
He also has some wonderful large garlic, fresh garden lettuce, and homegrown basil, oregano, and thyme ready for the market.  He might have a little asparagus and English peas, but I won't promise.... Those are almost gone, and I'm a little stingy with them!

Coming Soon:  yellow squash and zucchini.  The tomatoes should be ready in another 10-14 days, and the green beans are looking GREAT.

You are always welcome to come by the farm for fresh veggies if you can't make it to the Farmers Market!
