Lindley Elementary: September Farmers Market



Lindley’s monthly Farmers Market has become a welcome tradition in the Lindley Park neighborhood.



This Saturday’s offerings included yummy cherry tomatoes, peppers, basil and a fabulous crop of ZINNIAS and MARIGOLD!

A wide selection of crafts were available from community members: pottery, jewelry, handmade clothing and bags and some lovely art for children and adults. Lots of tasty baked goods rounded out the selections.  This is a great fundraiser for Lindley’s garden. One of my favorite things to do is check in on the school garden on these Saturday mornings.
Okra thrives above and a new planting of broccoli below, peppers still holding on.




Herbs like rosemary thrived in the summer heat. This perennial herb should thrive for years!

Can’t wait to see what the next market will bring!
