Overland Park Farmer's Market

There are many Farmer's Markets in the Kansas City Metro area, but one we have always found to be very nice is in the suburban city of Overland Park. We had occasion to be in town today and since the Overland Park Farmer's Market was open, we just had to go.

















The market wasn't very crowded so we had plenty of room to wander around in. The fruits and vegetables were very well displayed, and seemed to be very fresh. Most were picked yesterday or this morning. There was quite a variety available including many varieties of peppers, squash, cucumbers, asparagus, beans, corn, tomatoes, etc. Note in the right picture above, the whole table is covered with Heirloom tomatoes.

Carole picked up fresh green beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet peppers, asparagus, and onions. She was looking for beets to pickle and can, but we were told it's the end on the season for beets. So she will have to be content with what we were able to find at today's "Overland Park Farmer's Market".

Maybe she can find some beets elsewhere.
