West Chester Grower's Market Preview

As always the West Chester Grower's Market is the place to buy fresh and buy local.  Here's a look at some of the things they have to offer tomorrow provided by the Grower's Market Blog.

Bryer Apiary will be offering the very latest 2011 wildflower honey from a crop just harvested this past weekend.  Also, in limited supply, will be honey that has a higher proportion of buckwheat nectar, yielding a darker color and somewhat heartier flavor, though this is not 100% buckwheat honey.  It is something different to try!  
* North Star Orchard will have peaches, plums, and the first apples of the year ("Pristine")! Plus, a few more of those "Wonderful" donut-shaped peaches. We'll also have a few veggies, including rainbow Swiss chard and the super-flavorful "Marvel of Venice" beans.
* Ellen April Handcrafted Soaps shares: Dave will be at the market this week with a selection of our luxurious soap and body products, including lavender hydrosol face & body mist which is the perfect cooler for these hot summer days. Stop by and get a spritz of the tester to cool you while you shop.
* Chile Spot will be at the Market with a full supply of all your favorite spicy jams, salsas and sauces as well as our beautiful ornamental peppers
* Applied Climatology, LLC has a special promotion AND giveaway this week!  Read below:
