Updated Richmond Farmers Market Schedule

Hey folks! Just popping in to say that our 2009 farmers market schedule is confirmed. We’ll be at The Market at St. Stephen’s at Grove Ave and Three Chopt Road and the South of the James Market at Forest Hill Park.

Both markets are on Saturday mornings, and we’ll be there starting May 2!! We’ll be bringing lots of vegetable and flower seedlings for your gardens.  Within a week or two our first vegetables will be in and we can all breathe a collective sigh of “At last!”  Look for lettuce, scallions, carrots, beets, and summer squash to start.  We can’t wait to meet you.

You can pick up your CSA share at either spot as well. We still have shares available so please be in touch or download an application to get started.

We’ve got lots more news to share this week, so check back in.
