Who says a community-oriented market like ours can&#8217;t be cosmopolitan too?<\/p>\n<p>Our market activity will be a canning and pickling demo, led by Lois and Anne of The Farm Yard and The Father&#8217;s Table. They&#8217;ll demonstrate step by step the art of preserving all the fruit and veggies you grow or buy.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth week of our free KERNEL kids activity is going to have a neat vegetable identification game. Our young participants will be blindfolded and have the chance to guess which veggies are which. They&#8217;ll also get an activity card and an easy-to-make recipe. This should be a lot of fun. Bring your kids and grandchildren!<\/p>\n<p>We had the first crop of tomatoes last week, and we should be seeing lots more of those from all of our produce vendors. R.P.
