Great pictures! Is that a squash between the eggplant and tomatoes? What kind? Don't you just love farmer's markets!

Beautiful pix, barnmom! That veggie one is so vibrant!
Is this stuff you bought, or were you photographing what was available?

I don't have a closeup of the solar babies ,but they are small solar lights with a cutsie stained glass object on the front ( frogs,flowers,butterflies ,etc ) I coiled a copper wire around the pole of the light and soldered the glass thing to the wire. It can slide on or off really easy . Just a decoration to add a little pizzaz to a cheap light ! PS - the town's biggest and best chocolate lady was supposed to have a booth next to us last week. BUT -- a bad storm came through a day earlier & caved the roof of her store in and ruined everything . All that wasted chocolate -- WAHHH !!! Hopefully she'll be back soon. One more PS - I LOVE those barnwood blooms !

Hey, thanks everyone! Indeed, we are known for our incredible variety of non-standard produce. I think we have 12 types of eggplant growing, maybe more. Veda, the Listada eggplant has been very popular this season. We grew it as a customer request (as we often do) and it has become a favorite. Tom (Kentish), I honestly don't know if that variety of tomato is the Pork Chop....we have 74 varieties of tomato going, and it is confusing with so many look-alikes in red, yellow, chocolate, pink, and miscellaneous. Pam, I don't think we're growing Cool Breeze cukes. We have lots of others, though....Straight 8's, Northern Pickler, Diva, Adam Gerkin, and some other dark pickling peppers. Our favorites for the pickles we make are the Salt and Pepper cuke, as well as the Lemon cuke. I just got back from the Farm where pickling and salsa was underway. TomT, funny story about the okra....some lady was gaining access to the garden and stripping our plants. For weeks we couldn't figure out why the heck the plants weren't "producing." Then one of our workers spotted her as she was leaving. Anyhow, we're growing Burgundy Okra (again, by customer request), although I'd prefer Lady Fingers, or a tastier type. Here's a pic for you.

Ann, I envy you your lovely farmers market. Ours around here are nothing like what you have. The best one is just a little too far for me to drive to. And, how many people can buy veggies and make them look so good for the picture? That definitely is food porn. I have long lusted for your moussaka. One of these days, I will try it.

Oh my gosh, those eggplant are just beautiful, as are the other items.

I'll wait for "part 2"...

I didn't purchase these items, I just wandered through and took photos that day. I think I bought some baked goods that day. I had been given a large quantity of peaches, tomatoes and eggplant from someone's garden just the day before.

This being an agricultural area, the peaches I got were canning peaches. I waited for them to get soft but they never did. It dawned on me they were not table peaches so I baked them all in a large crisp. They were great, the peaches stayed and distinct after baking.

I will go back this Saturday early before a crowd gathers and the light is still pretty and see what treasures are there to shoot.

I meant to go to the Sunday farmers' market in Hollywood because they were having a huge tomato sale, but didn't have time to schedule it.

It will be interesting to see more pics so that I can compare yours with what we get here.

Those are lovely pics Barnmom. I have also been thinking of going to our local municipal farmers' market to see what's being harvested since I've been away on holiday. I always take my camera when I go there as well, so it should be interesting to compare the produce we see in different parts of the world.

Wow, those are spectacular shots!! I can't wait to see more. Your photography is wonderful, as always, and I am impressed by the perfection of your subjects too. Not a blemish, bug hole, or other common distractions.
