Week of May 29th - Morels, Spinach & Fiddle Head Ferns

32nd St. Farmers Market today had many delicious treats to enjoy for the Memorial Day Weekend.

As seasong begin to shift from Spring  to Summer, there are few items to get while you still can:

  • Asparagus
  • Morels
  • Fiddle Head Ferns
  • Rhubarb
According to Farmer Tom McCarthy (The Pea Guy)"this was one of my best Asparagus crops- lasting almost a full 8 weeks."

Woodland Mushrooms has had Ramps, Fiddle Heads and Morels for the past few weeks but will all be coming to end very shortly.


Fresh Spinach is just coming in strong to MD area and lookin great.

Last night we completed our supply from last week's market trip and made grilled flat bread with spinach, onion, morels, tiny bit of bacon (from our half pig purchased last season raised by Truck Patch Farms ) & what else fried Duck Eggs. See pic below - little messy but oh so good.
