Farmer's Market Week in Review

I think spring came a bit later to Brooklyn than to other places, or at least seemed to come later this year than last year. Our farmers' market just got asparagus this past week and has been chiefly showcasing flowers and starter plants along with root vegetables and a handful of the earliest of spring onions.

Our take this week: scallions, leeks, carrots, sweet potatoes, parsley, chives, rosemary, spinach and the first (weekend) showing of asparagus.
