The heat permeating the air the second you walk outside can only mean one thing: Summer has officially arrived. The extended 2018 spring breezes are now a thing of the past, but luckily fresh produce at the Red Stick Farmers Market is still going strong.
Late May favorites, such as cucumbers, sweet corn, tomatoes and squash, will be even more plentiful at the markets in June. With Patty Pan, Zephyr and zucchini squash all offered at the markets, you’ll have your pick of the freshest squash in town.
We’ll have to say goodbye to broccoli, carrots and turnips, as the cool-weather crops are winding down. Strawberries won’t make the cut anymore either. Now, you’ll have blueberries, peaches and melons at the market to satisfy your fruit fix.
