Friday was picking day for market. Greg mowed between the rows and knocked down a lot of weeds while I picked. Things are slowing down, the okra is pretty much done. After we were finished picking we cut up peppers and put in the dehydrator. Our daughter came home for the weekend, so she fixed dinner while we finished up loading the trucks. She went to market for us in Fulton, she wanted some spending money!

Market Saturday was lousy in both Columbia and Fulton locations. It starts cooling off and people quit coming to market. I don't know if they think that there's nothing left or are just tired of the tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and zucchini?! But the Fall stuff is coming in. There are the winter squashes, pumpkins, sweet potatoes and some of the Spring things are again available in the Fall. So keep coming out to market!!!

Greg's brother-in-law commissioned me to make some corn cob jelly, tomato jalapeno jam and persimmon jam for his store that he and Greg's sister own in Glasgow, Missouri. They sell Missouri made art and crafts and Missouri made food products. It's called the Riverport Market. If you're ever in Glasgow check it out!
