Have you tried the lemon infused olive oil from Belle Farms? We can’t think of a better drizzle for broiling fresh fish, roasting asparagus or broccoli, or using in a dressing for a spring salad! Did you know that olive oil is also great for baking cakes?
Be sure to check out Belle Farms award-winning extra virgin olive oil too. We’ve lost count of how many years in a row they have come home with a gold medal from the prestigious New York competition for the best olive oils in the world!

Who can resist these incredible periwinkle blue hydrangeas at McCahon Floral? Arrange the pots in a basket to enjoy indoors for a few days, then plant outdoors in your garden. Hydrangeas are easy to grow and do well in our marine climate.
The Monterey Farmers Market is open till noon at the Del Monte Shopping Center.

Look who is back…Blue Heron Farms! Spring is extra special to us. We love when our farmers return to the markets and we have ‘the family’ together again! It might be a slower start this year due to the extra rainfall (which is both a good thing and a disruptive thing for some) but we are grateful for the water.
The farmers market will be open until noon today. Come by and stock up for the wet weekend. Don’t forget—the Aptos Farmers Market at Cabrillo College is open tomorrow from 8 am until noon, rain or shine.

Good morning from the Monterey Farmers Market at the Del Monte Shopping Center! We love the charming displays by Donna Dirt Farm—this week she is featuring fresh culinary herbs, perfect for adding to salads, salad dressings, or soup. Yep…it’s still soup weather! Mother Nature tried to fool us a little with a few sunny days this past week 😵💫. But this rainy weekend will be perfect for a hearty pot of soup — and using fresh spring herbs will make it all the better.
