Remember the [1] baby lettuce in the greenhouse? Here it is growing bigger in the fields of [2] Meadow’s Mirth Farm in Stratham.

You can buy their tender fresh organic lettuce at the [4] Portsmouth Farmers’ Market on Saturdays (get there early!). Other fresh veggies for sale at the market these days: bok choi, green garlic, spring onions, arugula, salad mix, radishes, and more every week as the weather warms and the days get longer.
And here is some of this year’s garlic crop, which will be harvested in mid-July and then cured for a few weeks so that you can store it all winter. Between now and then we’ll have [5] green garlic and [6] garlic scapes!
