No Headhouse market for Root Mass today! Alice and I will be cheering on Frankie and Landon as they run a 5k! We'll be back next week with kale, lettuce, beets, and the first strawberries of the season. 🍓 ❤️
So excited to be back at Headhouse market today for our 16th (!!) season! Swing by 2nd and Lombard for some sweet overwintered carrots, fresh greens, and smiling faces.
After much hand-wringing and pros vs. cons, we ultimately decided to leave the market van at home and enjoy the snow day. We were hoping to see you all one last time this year, but Mother Nature had other plans. Wishing everyone a joyful and restorative holiday season!
We had to shuffle some things around in order to manage the harvest during these frigid days, but we made it work! Come find me, delicious veggies, and my comically large hood at Headhouse tomorrow from 10-2. #hhmkt @thefoodtrust #wintergrowing
So much gratitude to this amazing crew for working hard all season to bring you this bounty.
These Brussels sprouts were seeded in the greenhouse in mid-June, transplanted in July, weeded, weeded, and weeded again, sprayed with Bt and fish emulsion, and even had harlequin beetles hand-picked from their tender leaves. Not to mention all the harvest work pictured here!
Thanks for incorporating them into your times of togetherness, community, and joy--they've travelled a long way to be here.
Hey Berks County folks! We're going to be at the Goggleworks in Reading from 9-1 THIS Friday (11/21) with all sorts of Thanksgiving goodies. We're bringing carrots, celery, collards, sweet potatoes, garlic, turnips, cabbage, squash, and herbs fresh from the farm, plus some delicious apples from @freconfarms . Come stock up for the holiday or just stop by to say, "Hey"! @thefoodtrust@goggleworks
It's been a few years since we've had a decent crop of parsnips, so we're excited to bring these beauties to Headhouse Market starting this Sunday! #hhmkt #buyfreshbuylocal #parsnips @thefoodtrust
