farmers market

[redbird]

I have been to a farmers market for the first time this year. I decided that the risk of taking the bus down to Harvard on a Sunday morning, and a market set up for social distancing, was low enough to be worth it. The Sunday market starts at 10 a.m., so I could avoid the heat of the day. The buses both ways were uncrowded, and other shoppers as well as the vendors were being good about distancing.

I have:

• cucumbers, one large and two pounds of the little Diva cucumbers


• lamb and sweet potato ravioli


• a red-leaf lettuce, having asked the vendor to give me either a red- or a green-leaf lettuce, whichever she thought was better


• blueberries


• raspberries, and


• cherry tomatoes.

Strawberry season appears to be over, and I didn't feel like paying $6 for a box of local cherries.

I bought a lot of cucumbers, because I don't expect more from the garden for at least three days. We have three boxes of the ravioli, and I have offered one to Adrian.

That sounds so great.

Worth the relatively low risk, I'd say.

I'd like to try that ravioli.
