A sunny midday stroll to the weekly Kittery Community Market ended with a basket full of sparkling fresh lettuce from Greenlaw Gardens, lacinato kale and kohlrabi from Bumbleroot Organic Farm, Maine Grains whole wheat pasta and polenta from Four Star Fresh, topped with a cheery bunch of sunflowers from Zach’s Farm. Tonight’s dinner will be pasta tossed with shredded kale, and a kohlrabi and greens salad to round things out. This is just an inkling of the bounty to come — be sure to make time to enjoy the summer while it’s here, dear friends.

This is exactly what I love about this part of the country…. a sunny stroll to the community market for garden fresh goods, an adventure repeated in many local communities!
It looks wonderful!
