The day of the remains

The last day of Farmers market in Davis Square, Somerville, earlier today. The day before American Thanksgiving marks the end of the urban farmers markets in these parts. The suburban markets had their last hurrah on Halloween.

Three apples to know in November

They are Suncrisp, Baldwin, and Topaz.

Gather them in

There were 17 kinds of apples today at  Volante Farms  in  Needham, Mass. It's a good place to get apples in what I think of as pirate season , when orchard-fresh apples grow scarce but can still be found.

Every fruit a number

The wily Ashmead's Kernel, bagged, labeled, and PLU ed.
