They grow purple, white, yellow and orange carrots and they are so sweet! Unlike most of the country, here in Phoenix, not a lot grows in the summer. Our markets generally cloes from July to October, but we get fresh grown veggies all winter. In about a month we'll have melons, tomatoes, corn and squashes in abundance.<br /><br />We're learning to enjoy what is in season locally.Lynnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21078238.post-1990126516032181552011-04-25T17:16:04.236-07:002011-04-25T17:16:04.236-07:00How about a Farmers' Market journal page?How about a Farmers' Market journal page?julie r.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21078238.post-23921371486098513212011-04-25T15:35:19.295-07:002011-04-25T15:35:19.295-07:00I love Zucchini and Summer Squash.

I steam the inside and mix with fresh bread crumbs, some herbs and egg and for me sauteed ground turkey, onions, garlic and mushroom and stuff back in the shell and bake. I have it with a spinach salad. OMG so good. Fresh bread is a must and strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and peaches.....and new potatoes.Susan Stokingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10933907339821025060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21078238.post-79693837958373086382011-04-25T12:59:13.791-07:002011-04-25T12:59:13.791-07:00This summer, I'm going start shopping at Farme...This summer, I'm going start shopping at Farmer's Markets.

I like to slice it thin, coat it with a wee bit of olive oil and some Italian seasoning, plus a wee bit of parmesan cheese and bake it in a single layer at about 350 until crisp (about 30 minutes). Grated and done with a bit of oil, garlic, s/p in a saute pan it becomes a lovely topping for pasta, especially with parm cheese, again. I love it in bread, cake, cookies, muffins.... I'm hooked and keep it grated and sliced in the freezer.(Slicing thin and freezing briefly on cookie sheet allows me to store it loose in a bag and use only a bit.) Whew! didn't mean to be so long winded.Sharon W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14893517895077864952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21078238.post-77706972595360301772011-04-24T21:36:44.504-07:002011-04-24T21:36:44.504-07:00Looks like you got a great haul, and very inspirin...Looks like you got a great haul, and very inspiring! <br />Just found your blog by chance, and so glad I did...it is gorgeous, inspiring, colorful!
