Hi Julie,
Thank you for reminding me to visit and support our local farmer's market... I think I will try to visit it on Sunday!
Glad to help! Today was a fun day for me the Tomcords (seedless concord grapes) are at Apkarian Farm's booth for the first week this year. Always a delicious addition to our fruit selection.
