AT THE MARKET:
It's another winter market this week at the Canandaigua market. I'll have a few stew starters and some peeled squash for your Thanksgiving week. Also some broomcorn swags, beeswax tapers (yes, that batch I forgot to bring last week) and even a bouquet of flowers! (When I was cleaning out the gardens this week I found a very small group of flocks and mums that had been protected from the frosts by the thick overgrowth of cosmos, and with the warm weather, the flocks have come into bloom, so I'll be arranging those in a pumpkin "vase.")

Canandaigua Winter Market:
Every other Saturday, 10-11AM, November-May
In the parking lot behind the Main St. Byrne Dairy
