Special Notices

Many of the weeks during the market we have several musicians performing at the market.  They are dedicated to making music, and also working for tips at several markets.  Although you may like some more than others, please be aware that the market does not contribute to them, but does allow their chance to particiate with us.  If you feel inclined, they appreciate any contributions you may give.

Get your corn to roast at the barbeque, then the first watermelon for that refreshing dessert.  These items are coming into the market now, just in time for the summer's best dinners and entertaining.  Be sure to get the mint from ABC's for the waters of summer, and the corn from Y/K Farms,  Tamai Farms, or Jaime Farms.   Underwood Farms has calico corn.   The first melons have arrived at Zamora's from San Diego and Thermal.  Summer squash is also just coming in and an excellent item for the bbq.

We've seen cherries and varieties of peaches and apricots, plums and all those varieties of pluots.   The many varieties of these lucious fruits will be upon us now for several months to come.  Walker Farms started these fruits the first week of May along with  Joe Bonilla starting the season now, with his fruits from Selma, and K&K start from the Fresno area.   Regier Farms started their appricots and various varieties of peaches and Tenerelli's varieties from Littlerock, as well as Charlie Yingst's fruits from there also.

Strawberries are still plentiful.  Harry's Berries seems to be getting over their quick interruption of production of those great berries they bring to market.  Pudwell's will have their triple berries all summer for those light desserts after the bbq.

Remember to get the lemon verbena at ABC's herb place for that special water additive, or special peach dessert.  Lily will have her recipes handy.
