Some faces at the market just kind of become part of the place. For better or worse, I guess I’m one of them. If you’ve been around a while, you probably know me as that barefoot guy at Spruce Run Farm… and yes, even after a recent hip replacement, that part hasn’t changed. Kenny’s the tall one with the beard and a million farming stories. Together we’ve been holding down our little corner of the market for years.
What you might not always see is that I’m also the market manager, and Kenny is right there with me helping keep everything running smoothly. So on any given market day, we’re pulling double duty. We're working behind the scenes and bringing fresh-from-the-field produce (and honey) straight to you.
Opening Day is always something special, and we're excited to be kicking things off with a great early-season lineup. We’ll have beautiful leafy greens, fresh asparagus, a limited amount of strawberries, and the first cuttings of rhubarb.
Someone always shows up looking for them, so let me just put this out there...
sweet corn and watermelons are on the way. As always, we’re aiming for right around the Fourth of July, but this week is all about those first fresh veggies of the season.
Stop by, say hello, and help us get the season started right. I’ll be the one without shoes.
