To Market, to Market...

...to sell lots of corn!

These are some pictures from a market we--Caitlin, Jake and I-- did in Grayslake last week Wednesday. With this particular market, there's a lot of good about it :) ....we don't have to be up at 2:00, 3:00, or even 5:00 in the morning! We don't even have to be up at 8:00! It's just that great! This market doesn't start until 3:00, but we have to be at the farm to pick everything up by about 11:30ish. But anyway.... here are just a few pictures from that day. I didn't take all of them, I think Jake took a few, but it gets pretty busy otherwise I could take pictures at this market all day. It's a very clean looking market..... in my opinion anyway! ;) Okay, enough talk..........

And we're off!

The brave Budget truck driver! ;)



Red beets, Golden beets, Cauliflower, Mini eggplant, Large eggplant, Kohlrabi, Red cabbage, Savoy Cabbage.....


Golden beets..

Brussels sprouts.... delicious! ......or not.

Yellow summer squash, Barq squash...

Do you see how intently they're listening to Jake talk about the corn? =D



......it's a long day and we get back late, but in the end.... it'll all be worth it. =]
