  1. Here's a guest post I did for the Baltimore Sun's Dining@Large column about my August 7 trip to the market (I go weekly). It's very brief- someone typically gives a short report of the goodies to be found as the 32nd Street Farmer's Market is a good tip-off for what to find at the larger Baltimore Farmer's Market (under the JFX/83) on Sundays. Waverly Market report With our usual Saturday farmers' market correspondent away at the shore, BaltimoreGal graciously agreed to check out Waverly this week. Sounds like she had a great time. Here's BaltimoreGal. LV It was a gorgeous day at the market -- one of the prime days of the year! Tomatoes were at almost every stand but the star were the heirloom tomatoes in every shade: black, purple, red, orange, yellow, and green! I saw all kinds of melon, including beautiful watermelons, as well as yellow and white peaches, nectarines, and all kinds of plums. I saw eggplant great and small and a rainbow of peppers. The other star for me came via Hollow Farms. They have Lima beans, black beans, black-eyed peas, and Crowder peas. I suggest buying at least a pound of each! Dining@Large provides this weekly!
  2. just enjoyed a Maryland tomato and black pepper/smoked paprika/tumeric goat cheese sandwich.

  3. Hello All! I'm Ann, from Baltimore, and recently joined this site on the urging of Ms. Minx. I do NOT work in the food industry in any way but am very interested in local food and what I consider good cooking and business practices. I'm the daughter of a farm girl so my expertise, as it were, is in the simple preparation of fresh and in-season produce. Although I do have an inheritance of southern recipes that some may kill for, including Mama Hilda's pound cake (which calls for a pound of butter) and the Smithville Men's Club Brunswick Stew. I also know how to make a BBQ sauce, courtesy of my grandpa Leroy, that will cover half a hog, wipe out your sinuses, clear your pores, and could probably clean your windows. I'm trying to live off what I buy at local farmers' markets as well as eat at restaurants that serve local, in-season produce and local meats, also limiting artificial ingredients. I completely cut out HFCS in March (as much as anyone can) and feel pretty great about that. Good to meet you all.
