Monticello Farmers Market

Published by admin on Wed, 07/19/2017 - 4:08pm

We have waited all winter for days like these! Sweet corn, green beans, kohlrabi, sugar snap peas, zucchini. Tomatoes will be plentiful soon. Daniel Miller and Duane Manternach have joined us at the market. Daniel is bringing a variety of vegetables and Duane is bringing sweet corn.

Farm fresh eggs are always at the market. Just look for the stuffed chicken. A couple of eggs for breakfast is a great start to the day. They are protein packed, low in calories, and quick and easy to prepare.
