Market Notes for Aug. 8, 2026
Peeled SHALLOTS - grab and go!
Henry’s bringing up tons (literally) of beautiful produce and we don’t have room here to talk about everything, so here are just a few highlights.
Excellent Summer Leeks and Chive Buds — on sale when you buy more than one bunch!
Kale is back, but only a small amount so come early to get it!
Peeled Shallots
Tomatoes still ramping up
Peak Week for Sweet Corn
Henry says this will for sure be the last big week for corn as he’s harvesting out the 2nd planting of all his different varieties. If he brings any corn at all next week, it will only be a small amount, so stock up this week, and freeze some for winter!
Katahdin Potatoes
Try Katahdin, a variety Henry’s growing for the first time this year, although it has been around since 1932. Named after Maine’s tallest peak, it’s known for its great taste and all-purpose qualities—excellent whether baked, boiled, sauteed, or fried.
Give it a try, and let Henry know whether he should plant it again next year or not. (Ditto for the Purple Pelisse if you tried that one last week.)
