Other than on baked potatoes, how do you like chives?

The Winter Markets are a wrap for the season! The Alexandria, MN Farmers Market will start May 9th, by Big Ole. Can't wait to see you there, and in the mean time, our garden store is open all the time. 6789 County Road 82 SE.

Currently we have fresh mint and chives in the fridge. Also, we have several bags of ugly but yummy apples still on had. They are great for eating, saucing, and baking.

Yes! These are fresh apples that had been stored in a refrigerator in our big shed which is not heated. They are ugly because they survived that terrible hail storm last June. Some are a little soft, but they are still great for making sauce and some even for eating. I will have these at the market on Wednesday, Anderson Florist & Greenhouse.

Help me pick a name for this new snack. You can comment below. You can try them out and fill out an entry form at the winter Alexandria, MN Farmers Market this Sunday Copper Trail Brewing Company, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

They are fruit leathers but also include scoby. So they are probiotic because I dehydrate them at a very low temperature, they do have sugar but in the future I plan to use a healthier version of sweetener and the fruit. They are tangy and sweet, and so much better for you than those fruit type snacks you get at the big box store.

These ones are cherry, but fruits will vary in the future.
