From The Farmer's Market

Went down to the Wednesday farmer's market today & found some dandy salad fixins, including these good looking radishes and some nice ripe cantalopes. The radish tops (greens) were very fresh, so I picked & rinsed them ... gonna put some of the youngest/freshest ones in a salad tonight, and use the rest of them to make a radish leaf/asiago pesto.

You'll must warm up faster in the spring than us up here on the frozen tundra. My garden does not have anything nearly ready to pull, and our first farmers market is usually after the 4th of July.

I love them too. We did 8 different varieties of heirloom tomatoes this year. Ours have only been in the ground for 3 weeks. We started them in a greenhouse first, but it will still be prolly 6 weeks before we see anything on them.
