Fluvanna Farmers’ Market at Pleasant Grove

Larry of Lar-Lyn FarmsThe market in May is special. As each new vegetable grows and is ready to sell, it is a time of wonderful anticipation of the fresh flavors we have not enjoyed since last year.

With the warm winter, all the good veggies are coming in early this year. Sam is selling beef and vegetables are provided by Larry and Lyn. Walk through the market and see all the crafts and baked goods offered. You can find almost anything for any flavor you choose, whether it be plants or jewelry. Each week some good gifts are raffled, so when at the market don’t forget to enter. The  most recent winners are Cindy Brown and Peggy Utterback.

One of the vendors is Jutta’s Flowers.The Farmers Market has been blessed this year with some wonderful weather and the mild winter has meant that we already have some strawberries as well as asparagus.

It was opening day at the Fluvanna Farmers Market on April 3. Once again the people of Fluvanna can buy truly locally grown fresh produce where the person they meet is the person who grew it. 
We are pretty strict about that. Co- manager Jutta Glasscock visits farms to be sure, if they say they grew it, they did!  We are unique among markets and CSA’s – where sometimes produce is purchased regionally for resale.

Mums at the Fluvanna Farmers MarketAs the end of September comes each year we begin to anticipate the end of our market only four weeks away on Oct. 25. Not only will I miss all this wonderful fresh produce but all the people that we see so much of each summer – shoppers and vendors alike
This week we were delighted to host Dick Orange who sang for us from 3 until 5 p.m. The weather was perfect in spite of a rainy morning.
