It's Fall at the Farmers Market

The Wrightstown Farmers Market is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. every Saturday until November 17.

Tomato season may be over, but there will still be plenty of fresh veggies available at this weekend's Wrightstown Farmers Market. Local farmers are expected to be selling apples, beets, broccili, leeks and much more.

Market manager Robin Hoy provided the following summary of what will be offered at Saturday's market:

"We'll have freshly picked apples, leeks, broccoli, cabbages, celery root, beets, turnips, lettuce, chard, collards, kale, mizuna, raddichio, radishes, parsley, winter squash galore and freshly pressed apple cider.  If we're lucky, sweet corn, sweet and hot peppers and eggplant will have survived the frost, and there could be bok choy, carrots and cauliflower.  We'll also have potatoes, garlic and onions."
