The Busy Season
Sliced & whole loaves of Stella's Bakery Sourdough Hopping. That's the best way to describe market last Saturday, just plain hopping all day long.
Part of it was that summertime produce, with nearly everything one could desire from the garden in season. From aronia berries at Yang Family Produce to zucchini at Happy Valley Farm, if it grows in Wisconsin, it's probably in season now.
