Come on down to the produce stand! It is chock-a-block full of tomatoes, Anaheim peppers, poblano peppers, jalapenos, Acorn squash, zucchini, cucumbers, decorative gourds, bell peppers and seed potatoes. Ask about picking volumes of tomatoes for canning.
For those that don't know: Anaheim and poblano peppers are very mild. I use Anaheim's as a substitute for bell peppers in many recipes. Poblanos make the best chili rellenos. Acorn squash are simple to prepare by cutting in half, scooping out the seeds then packing it full of butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. pop it in a 350 oven for 45 minutes to an hour till tender.
The seed potatoes will come 20 per bag for $2. There are 3 varieties available: Kennebec, which are like the russets you buy in the market. German Butter Ball which are golden fleshed and brown skinned. Pontiacs which are red skinned and white fleshed. keep them in a cool dark place till spring then plant them for your own crop next year!
