The Bozeman Farmer’s Market opened today for the season.
Two of my favorite growers, Paula (pictured) and Ken Weinacht with West Valley Garden, were back. From their booth I picked up gorgeous kale, beautiful spinach, and mixed lettuce. They said their "freaky carrots" will be available in a few weeks.
From the seniors who embroider—the RSVP Handcrafters—I snagged a pair of exquisite, vintage-looking pillowcases. And the Springdale Colony of Hutterites from White Sulphur Springs had mason jars of Home Grown Pickled Beets and Home Grown Pickled Green Beans. They make a delicious and healthy cool summer appetizer.
There was a festive, friendly atmosphere at the Market. It was so much fun. I can hardly to wait to bring our summer guests.
