We are having a tremendous lag concerning tomatoed gardens this year. It seems as if farmers are troubled by the continued rain and has caused most to be approximately eight or nine weeks from having blemish free tomatoes to harvest and bring to the market. Our vendors are bringing a number of Roma and San Marsano tomatoes. Everyone wants those big Beef Steak Tomatoes and Celebrity tomatoes that are consistently uniform and perfect for sandwiches. BER has been the problem for most gardeners this year. Our venders are few but resilient. They are bringing cucumbers, squash and zucchini along with rattlesnake beans, peppers and okra. Some are bringing eggs, breads and berries. Vendors of note happen to be Mrs. Miller with her plants of various sorts and Ms. Conya Rowls that has constantly provided a lifeline to the market with her produce. Ms. Wanda Theiss with her healing salves and Ms. Tracie Spear who just keeps on surprising us when she shows up. We are still seeking vendors at our market and desire your participation. Especially those that have tomatoes, peas and corn. For those of you that have the senior vouchers cards come visit us. Spend it while you have it. We don't know how long this program will last.
