This Wednesday at the Farmers Market is our annual Zucchini 500! Kids of all ages can make and race their personal vegetable vehicle with wooden wheels and decorations… car-making and races start at 3 pm and end at 6 pm.

On the produce front, look for more apples, new potatoes, pears, and lots of sweet and hot peppers, and sweet corn on the cob, plums, nectarines, peaches and blueberries This is peak harvest season — a list of every fruit and vegetable on the market tables now would fill this page!

Amber at the Rainier Valley Post says she doesn't want direct links from the Wikli's blogossiphere over her concern that gossip just isn't her brand. We still encourage you to check out her blog.
