It’s been a damp and chilly May, and weather forecasts aren’t giving us much of a break for the Schenectady Greenmarket tomorrow. But be brave — face the rain and come out and shop. We have a lot of fresh herbs, goose eggs again, and some early greens along with our goat meat and heirloom corn, now available pre-ground to make for an easy night of polenta/grits or a quick batch of skillet cornbread. We’ll be away for the next two weekends so come see us tomorrow and stock up!

Enjoy the sunshine on this last Sunday in April at the Schenectady Greenmarket. We have our first harvest of dandelions, which grow naturally in our gardens free of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. Try some. We also have goat and our heirloom dried corn, and a limited number of eggs. Come check us and our new logo out today!

Good morning! We’re at the Schenectady Greenmarket today, 10-2, and are excited to be offering our first ever body care product: Loofah, grown from the squash at our farm! The dried interior of this unusual squash has been prized for decades as an exfoliating body scrub and cleaner. It softens beautifully when wet and dries out nicely after use. With proper care, a good loofah will last for months. Come try one out today.

We also have our other winter farm items: dried heirloom corn and a good variety of goat.

See you soon at Proctors!
