Saturday’s ARTfarm 10am-12noon! Get Greened!

Oh yes! We have salad greens! Although, perhaps calling them ‘greens’ is a bit disingenuous as they come in a variety of colors and shades. We open at 10am and the three earliest early birds can purchase a teaser half pint of sweet cherry tomatoes to add even more color to their salad. Don’t forget the cucumbers in all their various sizes, shapes and textures! We could eat salad like that for every meal and snack of the day!

Just harvested at ARTfarm, six different types of sweet lettuces range widely in texture, shape and color - from a spring green oak leaf to a fiery red ombre to a deep burgundy purple lettuce, and other greens and reds in between.
