Amy's here--we've got corn!

Julie's early Friday a.m. snapshot of one of our favorite local suppliers, Amy Hepworth, bringing us as much corn (gunny sacks), tomatoes (brown boxes) and white peaches (white boxes) as they are able to cram into their truck. Very fresh, very tasty and grown with the least amount of chemicals possible in upstate New York. We get deliveries from Amy's farm several times a week.

In the News.....

The Brooklyn Paper queried Whole Foods about the status of their proposed new home on 3rd St and 3rd Ave. Last week the Paper concluded that Whole Foods was abandoning the site, this week there is a slightly different story.

NYTimes reported fungal attack on Northeastern tomatoes. Allen & Julie say that so far Amy Hepworth, our major supplier of local tomatoes, has not been hit by this fungus.
