On the Table: June 27, 2026


Big bunches of pink-and-white french breakfast radishes, orange golden helios radishes, and white hakurei turnips, alongside leafy greens and baskets of peas on a farmers market table.
Last week’s table at the Effingham Farmers Market, June 20, 2026.

We had another great market day last week, selling out of everything but a bundle of chard. Not too shabby!

There's a chance we'll have a handful of zucchini and summer squash this week, maybe even a few patty pan squashes. Most other items from the season so far will be returning this week.

New to the table this week

Zucchini, summer squash, patty pan squash: Quantities will be very limited, but there's a good chance we'll have a few of each to sell. Next week: squash-aggedon.

Familiar Friends

Sugar snap peas: Last week's harvest was a start, but we expect a pretty good showing of peas this week, picked the morning-of the market for maximum sweetness.

Cabbages: A round of green cabbages are looking perfect for the week, and we'll have a few more heads of "Minuet" napa cabbage, too.

Radishes: Golden helios and french breakfast.

Beets: at least a few bunches each of chioggia, touchstone gold, and "babybeat" baby red beets.

Hakurei Turnips: These are probably the last of the salad turnips for a week or two. Excellent raw, as a snack or in salads -- peppery like a radish, but a bit sweeter.

Greens: bunched collards, lacinato kale, rainbow chard. Quantities of chard and kale will be a bit more limited this week, but we'll have lots of fresh collards to enjoy.

Coming soon

We have a very good shot at having some green beans on the table next week -- just in time for the 4th!

See you Saturday!
