I had to work this morning and I am really bummed I missed the Satsumas. :-( They are my favorite! Any chance that they will be there next week?

I still have some arugula I got last week and it is still so fresh and delicious!

The sweet potatoes and squash I purchased the weekend before Thanksgiving was outstanding as well.

If there is anyone who has not been to the Seaside Farmers Market, please go! Support local farmers! The prices can't be beat and you will never find anything that tastes as amazing in the stores!

You can contact Renee at Twin Oaks Farm to find out if she has more Satsumas. Twin Oaks Farm | Where we grow real food

Those satsumas decorated 2 Christmas salads and were perfect snacks in between. Her Meyer lemons are the bomb to (literally-they are large hand grenade size!!).

Any chance I could find out if there will be seeds available this weekend?

By the way, my family LOVED the milk, duck eggs, preserves and oranges from last weekend. And we are already halfway through our bottle of honey.

Thanks!

Moonlight Micro-Farm is taking a few weeks off from the Farmer's market during the month of January to put in some new garden beds. If you have an idea of what kind of seeds you might like, I could get them to you.

I have organic sprouting seeds, as well as a variety of heirloom garden seeds, both warm and cool season.

Moonlight Micro-farm will be back at the market on Feb. 6.

What a beautiful morning for the Farmers Market! I believe they are setting up in the new space in the grass.

As we drove through Seaside last night, the post office was on the beams and ready to be pulled into it's new spot. Maybe it will be the "show" this morning!
