Farm Market Report
We bought some corn from the men's group. They had potatoes, green beans and cucumbers that looked good, but I thought we had all the vegetables we could eat in a week. Then I bought some baby zucchini and squash from the guy from Blissfield.
The fruit farmer was there with the first of this year's peaches and blueberries. His farm was hit hard by weather and he lost all his cherries and apricots to frost. His apples and plums have hail damage. I believe he said the west side of his orchard had been "devastated". I wanted to buy some cherries from him this year so that's disappointing, but hail damaged apples and plums will be 1/2 price and great for canning.
In other Ypsi food news, the Maple Raisin Crisp on sale at the co-op is disgusting. Even the raisins taste like cardboard!
