Right up front, let me apologize… although I did NOT order the 90-degree weather! A glitch in the schedule…it was not due to arrive before July. But as is usual for these parts, we sped through Spring and landed right at the corner of Summer and Scorch. It was HOT! But one look at those coooool green cukes …
It’s always sunny at the LFM!
Unfortunately, last week’s dismal weather did mean that some of our expected vendors could not be there. We hate when that happens. But cold and wet weekend to the contrary, SUMMER is indeed coming in, and the Lansdowne Farmers Market will soon be brimming with the fresh fruits and veggies of the season…not to mention (but we will) local wine, …
…and we’re back!
We may still be sporting masks, but we’re back. We may still be a little hesitant about hugs and hellos, but we’re back. And it looks like the pendulum is at last swinging in our favor. I’m so glad and maybe just a little verklempt to be the one to welcome everyone back to the LANSDOWNE FARMERS MARKET! It’s …
Bada Bing Bada BOO!
I’m not sayin’ we saved the best for last, but this week is indeed the last of the season, and we’ve managed to pack it with enough gusto to fill a tent…or several tents. Enough, we hope, to keep you waiting for next May, and the next installment of The Lansdowne Farmers Market. It’s our Fab Fall Fest and Community …
Countdown
Just one more week until we ring the curtain down on the 2019 LFM season. I’m gonna miss it…time spent with friends, time to just sit and people-watch…time to be a part of something uniquely Lansdowne; although time for sleeping in on a Saturday does have its charm! But we still have a mile or two to go before we …
Tick Tock
If you’ve been paying attention, we are down to our last three markets of the regular LFM season…In old movies, this is the part where the pages fly off the calendar, right? If nothing else, the drop in temperature last Saturday was a gentle tap on the shoulder…bright, brisk and bea-u-tiful. October at its very best. Even with a few …
Eggstra, Eggstra!
Full Disclosure: In case you missed me last Saturday (and you did, right?), I was playin’ hooky at the Jersey Shore…more specifically: OCNJ and the annual Baraldi sibling get together. To be fair, the LFM traveled with me: Big Sky’s pepperoni/cheese loaf and Amazing Acres’ lemon rosemary chèvre representin’! And…I got to show off my ‘DOWNE not ‘DALE tee shirt …
How Do You Like Them Apples?
So, according to the calendar…if not the weather…it’s officially Fall. And if not exactly sweater weather yet, the season is settling in as it always does. It just takes some getting used to, is all. For one thing, I’ll no longer be able to blame the heat for a day spent doing absolutely nothing. For another, I’ve finally had maybe …
Barks, Burgers and BeeBop
If you weren’t there last Saturday, you missed a howling good time, as the LFM held its annual Doggie Day Parade. With our unflappable emcee Jennifer Hoff at the mic, this year went off without a hitch as, from the very smallest to the tallest of allest, the pooches showed off how well they had trained their person. Well done, …
Go Ahead and Take a Bow Wow!
Is anyone besides me old enough to remember the song “The Teddy Bears’ Picnic?” If you go into the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise…. (Bonus market buck for a verse…three market bucks if you let me sing the whole thing uninterrupted!) Here at the LFM we have a slightly different take: Today’s the day the Doggies …
