"The street
filled with tomatoes
midday,
summer,
light is
halved
like
a
tomato,
its juice
runs
through the streets." - Pablo Neruda
Tomato harvest time is upon us. The market is overflowing with these ripe fruit (or veggie. You decide. For more on the debate check out this National Geographic overview)
Never sink Farm, Sun Sprout Farm, and Taliaferro Farmstead have the fresh, juicy ones. Come to the market early to see the rainbow of colors- everyone grows different varieties and sizes! Wrights Farm has canned their heirlooms and made sauce and salsa easy meal-making.
Come for the tomatoes, stay for the pretzels from Bronx Baking Co, rotegruetze from Kaffee & Klatsch NY, and so much more!
See you at the market!
