In May, the farmers market truly comes alive with the promise of summer. It marks the transition from the bounty of spring to the abundance of warmer months ahead. The month of May brings an explosion of fresh produce to the market. Crisp greens like lettuce, spinach, and arugula, kale, kohlrabi, etc. are available, along with early crops of peas and radishes. Strawberries are plentiful, making us all happy with their sweet fragrance and juicy flavor. Seedlings and Plants: For those with green thumbs, May is prime time for purchasing seedlings and plants for your garden. Vendors offer a variety of herbs, flowers, and vegetable starts, allowing you to kickstart your own garden at home. More vendors are present too - so there are more offerings available throughout the market.
