WHAT’S COOKING: Radishes 2 Ways
Radishes are abundant in spring and lend fresh crunch to lots of springtime dishes. Here are two brilliant ways to use them from our friends Sonja and Alex Overhiser. I especially love that you can find so many of the ingredients at the Market!
MUSICAL GUEST: North – Whobilados
Whobilados play a mix of lively traditional tunes and originals blending multi-part vocals, with varied instruments, for their highly listenable music. Be entertained while you shop or take a break to sit and listen.
MUSICAL GUEST: South – Proctor & Strunk
Kevin Strunk and Mark Proctor play a wide variety of folk, country, bluegrass, and light rock covers as well as originals on guitar and mandolin. They’re always a big hit. Listen while you breakfast this Saturday!
Our musicians volunteer to perform at the Market, so tips are much appreciated!
