The Second Market of the Season June 22

The weather for Saturday doesn't look to promising: Periods of rain and a high of 21.  As a gardener and having groups coming down to the The Scarecrow Forest I tend to watch the forecast like a hawk and one thing I've noticed is that the forecast always changes.  It might be sunny on Saturday, you never know.  Penner Pumpkins tent bite the dust last market so if I can find another tent or have the old one fixed than Penner Pumpkins will be at the market.

I will be selling:

• Rhubarb
• Lettuce
• A couple of pounds of green tomatoes.  The tomatoes are starting to ripen, but the first few always get put to use as Toasted Tomato sandwiches at the Penner house.
• A few zucchini
• Jelly (orange mint, pineapple mint, apple mint, apple cinnamon, jalapeno, hot cherry bomb, a mint of everything, and mint).
• Sweet Zucchini Relish
• Sweet Cucumber Relish
• Handmade cards
• Play dough
• Potted herbs (Sweet Basil, Lemon Basil, Lime Basil, 8 varieties of mint, Cinnamon Basil, Lemon Thyme, etc.).  Check out this blog post for more varieties.
• Potted Tomato Plants (Cherry, Big Beef, Applause, and Early Girl).
• Potted Pepper Plants (Ace, Yellow, Red, and Purple).

Hope to see you Saturday!

This was used in the Steinbach Parade a few years ago.
