Farmers’ Market fun find

If you see this before the Farmers’ Market closes @ 2 pm: the produce/plants booth at the SE corner has organic purple green onions, $2/bunch. And if you’re looking for a present for a mom who gardens, more booths than ever have plants today — though our fave remains Langley Fine Gardens and its often-unusual offerings.

    I bought my bat-face cuphea at the Farmer’s Market today! This is their first appearance at the market this year. Hummingbirds love them.

    Billy, NW corner, had fresh thyme in pots of various sizes. I got one myself.

    I love the idea of the market — It’s a great gathering place for West Seattlites. I just wish it weren’t so incredibly expensive. It used to be that farmer’s markets were about cutting out the middle person (and associated costs), but this one seems to have more of a “specialty shop” philosophy — and apparently with pretty high profit margins. Seems like they’d sell a lot more with slightly lower prices.

Sorry, comment time is over.
