Uptown Westerville is a Place for Market Wednesdays

This week marks Week 12 of the Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market. The market meets rain or shine (all vendors have a canopy) and weather reports as of this posting, call for some rain at noon, a cloudy afternoon (without rain), and some precip around 5 p.m.

The Market Photo Tours for week's 10 and 11 are now uploaded to flickr.com.

We are starting to head into the best parts of the produce season -- peppers, tomatoes, green beans, and sweet corn. The colors are vibrant and the flavors rich.

We will not see Bridgman Farm this week, but Mary tells us that she will be here next week with lots of tomatoes. Sweet Thing Gourmet will also not be at this week's market (we'll see Mark and Kyla next week).
