Happy Monday! We're already dreaming of "Fall" over here, trying to remember what the cooler months with a bigger selection of produce are like. Chef Jes Tantalo is taking it a step further this week by featuring her "Pumpkin Spice Dumplings," which are actually Szechuan flavors including fresh pumpkin, chives, ginger, garlic, and Szechuan peppercorns. Did you know that most squashes are actually available from the Barefoot Farmer right now? We don't even have to wait for a national coffee chain to declare the start of the season! You can pick up butternut, acorn, pattypan, and spaghetti squashes at the market tonight!

We're rain or shine tonight, hope to see you there.

Cheers,

Gabby Lothrop
Market Director
