I was at market on Saturday (yesterday) and kept an eye out for fruit and for new things at market. Here's some details.
Sour cherries were gone; sweet cherries were $5-$6 per quart.
Both Erie Orchards and Sodt's Berry Farm had blueberries for $40 for a 10# lug.
Basil, $1.00 to $1.25 a small bag, or $10/# (organic).
Grandma from Grandma's Kitchen brought 70 dozen eggs and was sold out at noon.
The U-Pick local report from Mark Charles:
Dexter Blueberry Farm's web site says they'll open on July 20.
Makielski's raspberry farm says "2 weeks" (about July 25.)
